This is real dated, but the fish don't know it. I was stationed @ PAFB 73-75. Always had fishing gear in the trunk. Fished the Saranac, Bouquette (sp) and Ausable. Loved fishing Union Falls which was at the head waters of the Saranac; bit of the flow dammed off in a beautiful setting. At that time about 10 miles of the Saranac was trophy fishing, as was much of the Ausable near the base. Lake Champlain was great for Northern Pike and Walleye. The mouth of the Saranac was the best for Walleye when they were running.

Living at the base, never had to look for lodging. Union Falls had some cabins and space for campers. Great resturant then was The Royal Savage south of the base on Rt 9.

I'd love to go back there to fish. Let me know what you find.
