Reports and Conditions:

Fishing

Salmon River: Steelheads and brown trout action has continued despite the high water conditions.  Drift boat trips are an attractive option with the high and fast conditions.  If fishing from shore, be mindful of the tough spring conditions when fishing. 

Hudson Valley & Catskill Trout:  The creeks are in great shape.  Rainbows and browns have been biting  on spinners and the usual spring fly patterns.  

Hudson River Conditions: Striped bass action is quite good in Piermont, Croton, and Haverstaw.  Reports of fish landed from boats have also been reported as far north as Newburgh Bay and Beacon.  With any luck, this year's run will provide great opportunities for some big fish. 

 Hiking Trips

We are in a period of transition.  The last signs of winter are fading and signs of spring are everywhere.  Trails require care this time of year.  Be mindful of slippery rock faces, mud, and other hazards associated with wet conditions.

On a recent trip the views from atop Storm King were phenomenal.  The cool air brings both clear crisp skies and solitude.

In addition to mountain hikes, Eagles can now be observed in a variety of locations along the Hudson.  Other interesting birds, such as the short eared owl, may also be seen by those looking for a local excursion.  If interested, contact us!
