Stocked salmon from federal fish hatchery provide New York anglers with rare opportunity in Schroon River

The Schroon River, a tributary of the Hudson River in the southern Adirondacks, has long offered solid trout fishing, with the occasional landlocked Atlantic salmon appearing in the river from Schroon Lake.
In early May this year though, the Schroon River began yielding big salmon after big salmon, numerous fish approaching 8 pounds, drawing anglers from around the Northeast for what had become an unusual fishing opportunity. That opportunity came courtesy of the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service fish hatcheries in Vermont.
