| "Making your list and
checking it twice" should be the mantra
for any angling adventure. This is particularly
important when you are heading for a wilderness
area like Adirondack Park. There are several
important reasons to give your gear list
some serious thought when heading for the
wilds. Ever changing weather makes technical
clothing every bit as important as your
fishing equipment. All of the guides and
outfitters on The Adirondack TCO team travel
to fish, some as far as Alaska, Argentina,
New Zealand and the tropics. So in the spirit
of saving our angling friends grief, dollars
and a ruined fishing trip, we make the following
suggestions for your Adirondack Park gear
list. |

Overview:
Staying warm and dry can be key to the success of any fishing trip. It's especially critical in the mountain climate of the Adirondacks. The rivers of the Adirondacks are primarily freestone and that makes the hydraulics powerful and sometimes unpredictable. Water conditions can change rapidly, rising fast and receding fast. Wading these powerful rivers is very different than most trout water. A sturdy, reliable wading stick is a must. Most times of the year, the terminal tackle used on the West Branch of the AuSable river is bigger than many are accustomed to fishing. Leaders are shorter, larger in diameter. Split shot is also bigger for the faster water conditions. Any doubts or questions, e-mail or call us at 518-946-2117.
