We made the trip up to one of our favorite WNY tributaries
in search of big lake run trout only to find every spot loaded with anglers.
Even an old standby location that has served us well in the past when angler
traffic gets heavy, was now posted and equipped with surveillance cameras.

So we headed back to one of the pull-offs, parked the car,
and decided to hike a bit upstream, away from the bridge where there were at
least 7-8 anglers.
Along the way we made frequent stops to check every little
nook and cranny, carefully searching for a holding fish. Over the course of the
next hour or so, we saw a few here and there and even fished a nice pool or two
along the way, but our venture upstream proved fruitless.
Back at the bridge, we were very happy to see that almost
all the other anglers were now gone, save one lonely soul across the stream on
the other side.
Over the last hour that we had left, the boys and I fished a
spot that often gets over looked. We each managed two hook-ups a piece, with
the boys each landing one. Not a bad way to end a tough outing.
