ozark trout fisher Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 I just closed the deal on a two week trip this summer to the Adirondacks in upstate New York, and I'm getting pretty darn excited about it. The fishing opportunities up there are about endless... I'll be right on the West Branch of the Ausable, a really great brown trout stream that I've fished a couple times, and really learned to like. But there's also a multitude of other trout and smallmouth streams to check out, as well as Lake Champlain. I'll have to bring everything from my six weight for brown trout, to a big old baitcaster for Northerns in Champlain... I think I'll even have to buy a little 4 weight for fishing the brushy little brook trout streams. Good problem to have. I've been up there before, and I have a pretty decent list of places in my mind that I'll definitely fish, but if someone else has any ideas, I'd sure appreciate it.

ozark trout fisher Posted December 22, 2009 Author Posted December 22, 2009 Don't forget your camera. You'll need it up there. I will bring a camera. Although the last time I was up there is part of the reason I'm a little nervous about wading with one. We'll just say that the West Branch of the Ausable has a pretty nice digital camera somewhere. Watch out for Champy. Makes Momo look like a cuddly little puppy. I heard all about Champy last time I was up there. I met up with an uncle that lives up there that swears he's seen him........................

If you're really that inclined to go swimming when you wade, maybe you should consider just taking a disposable. They won't be great pics, but you can still scan them in and claim your bragging rights when you land that 20 pound pike on 7X.

Alright man... I really did catch that fish, but I ain't gonna be able to prove it to you, so I'll stop trying. No pics = no bragging rights, so I'll just have to deal with that
