King Salmon in the Genesee and Salmon Rivers | S2 E07

OTW’s Andy Nabreski takes us to the fall migration of Chinook salmon, also known as king salmon, from Lake Ontario into the Genesee River in Rochester, New York. Guided by Toby Hall, Andy learns to fish salmon eggs on a controlled depth drift.

Next, Jay Baver takes us to the famed fishing town of Pulaski, New York. Guide Adam Margolycz teaches Jay how to use a center pin reel matched to a custom 14-foot rod to fish for the salmon. Jay doesn’t waste time putting his newly learned skills to the test on a heavy king.
