Ausable River Salmon Fishing- An Anglers Dream
AuSable River Salmon Fishing- An Anglers Dream by Eliseo Lao The AuSable River salmon is best in the area of the river closest to Lake Huron between the lake and Foote Dam, approximately 30 miles upriver from the lake. This part of the AuSable River is usually fished in the spring months of March through early May and in the fall between October and early November. Chinook and Atlantic salmon are the most frequently caught in the AuSable River salmon season, with brown trout, steelhead, and smallmouth bass being other species that are often fished at the same time in other parts of the river. The West Branch of the AuSable River salmon area is best known for fly-fishing opportunities. The Adirondack Mountains provide an amazing background and the typically warm spring and fall weather makes these waters very enjoyable. It is important to consider the type of equipment that you will need when these waters, as there are several options. Typically for shore a good set of chest waders is important and since the footing

in the bottom of the river tends to be mostly rocks, non-slip or felt-soled waders are recommended over studded or rubberized soles to prevent slipping. Depending on the type of the angler is choosing, a rod of eight to nine feet is considered ideal. Since larger tree branches typically overhang the AuSable River salmon areas, longer rods are often not practical. A four to six weight line and a seven to nine foot leader with one of any number of flies attached it really all the equipment that is needed. Some areas of the AuSable River salmon area are designated as no kill areas, most notably the area around the town of Wilmington. This no kill area is popular with people that are new to the area or those that just wish to fish for the day. The popularity of the AuSable River salmon continues to grow, with many people enjoying the accessibility and beautiful scenery in the area. Eliseo is an avid guy.

Deep Sea Fishing

Stop the Madness!!
First, they shut down the red snapper, grouper, and black seabass fisheries for an undetermined length of time. Next, the president forms a task force to oversee and protect the oceanic waters - we have yet to see the outcome of this group's recommendations - some say this could even prevent you from fishing in a pond on your own property. Either of these could curtail recreational fishing as we know it. The fishery closures are already having a huge economic impact on the fishing industry. California anglers wrestle with all the areas closed to fishing every day.

Now I read today that NOAA, in all its wisdom, wants to put loggerhead turtles on the endangered species list. Now, that may not seem to be bad - in fact, protecting an endangered animal species is what we need top do. But - is this turtle really endangered? I see at least one loggerhead on every trip I make. In fact, we often purposely look for one, because they are generally diving over live bottom, and that means fish are down there.

During the recent cold weather in Florida, hundreds of turtles were rescued and saved from death to be released back into the ocean when the water warmed. I just don't see the problem in my experience.

The report talks about Japanese nesting areas for the northern Pacific loggerhead. Ok - go after the Japanese. I wonder why we always seem to have to be the saviors of the world. It's just like the whaling industry in Japan and the blue fin tuna fishery in Japan. World stocks are depleted, but they seem to not care. So - to cure the problem, we let them fish and shut down our own fisheries.

So why is the loggerhead an issue? Well just watch. Top protect these turtles, commercial fishermen will be shut down in certain areas. Beach fronts that are nesting areas will be closed to public access. Boat traffic will be eliminated in areas where loggerheads roam - it just goes on and on. And, if you think I am making this up, just look at the manatee restrictions put in place in Florida over the past several years.

I am sure to get emails blasting me for this - PETA, et al, always watch what I write and then blast me. But - someone has to make some rational sense out of all of this.

You must realize that you have not heard from PETA and the other environmental groups for quite a while. I said years ago that they were well funded and they were taking their fight to lobbyists to quietly change fishing regulations. They have latched onto and gotten the ear of the government now and things will be changing fast over the next few years. IT IS TIME TO STOP THIS MADNESS!

If you fish - and by reading this either you do or you are one of the many tree-huggers that are trying to stop fishing altogether - you need to get hold of your congressman's and senators' ears and tell them - ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
