As Todd suggested, if you are going to the SR become familiar with their rules, as you cannot fish between sunset and sunrise.

When you get there the fish will be spread throughout the river and all access points will be crowded. However, do some walking from those access point and you will find some water to yourself. Mitch

Lot's of SM and LM bass, pike, bowfin, bluegill, crappie. Deep water basin will hold some splake but your catch per unit effort will be much higher if you target the other species. No problems in getting to Dog from Cranberry. Enjoy.........Mitch

Head down to Pulaski for some action. Water flow is lower than usual but lots of fishable water with little human traffic.

In Pulaski, NY the Salmon River kings and cohos are at the tail end of their run; however, plenty of steelhead and browns to be had.

A couple of good supply sites to consider

I add a split ring and use a crosslok swivel. Mitch

Both excellent bass lakes, which Devil providing you a lot less boat traffic and tons of structure to work. Aslo lakers and pike available. Mitch

CTC will have there other boat cover on sale which is a better product for a few bucks more. You can easily trailer with the cover on and is more durable than the one that is on sale. I speak from experience.
