The Salmon River holds brook and brown trout through forested sections of the Tupper Lake region, with multiple public access points and light angler pressure. Cold water, technical presentations, and a willingness to walk past roadside pools pay off here.
Fish on record include Brook trout and Brown trout — always check current New York State DEC regulations before fishing. Salmon River has public access.
