My friend Earl Pacella has been fishing king salmon for 25 years. This past January he presented “Kings of New York” at the Plum Island Surfcasters.
Earl’s seminar was full of great tips. For example:
- Bring dark and light polarized sunglasses with you. Wear them at all times. They help you see fish and structure below the water’s surface and will protect you eyes against a flying split shot when a king of New York snaps your line.
- Learn the regulations! Bring cash with you for fines, in case you break the law un-knowingly.
- Read “The Complete Guide to the Salmon River” by George Douglas.
- Have your fish cleaned at a fishing station: cleaning fish on the river banks is illegal!
Earl Pacella’s great seminar has inspired me to take a road trip this fall! 😉
