hey where were ya was out and about caught a nice 33" pike on my first cast up at the danm moved down a bit to get to the deeper pools and hooked into 2 schoolies up to 25". as the tide started to turn i moved down to the point where the naugy meets but no one was out at the point by the time i got there...got 2 more short guys on sluggos and then it turned off!
hey give it some thought to realease those bigger ones the houssy is still holding PCBs. just as a heads up also seem the fish are really slim no chunky ones last night..
wanted to go hit the ice today but CTO ran out of suckers!FML!lol
looks like i have to find a bait pond of my own..just kinda hard in the ghetto  |

| We were @ the point from like 7:30 to 10:30 or so. Sorry i missed you. Hey what did you catch the pike on??? I heard they were in there but never hooked into one. Would love to. And PCB's I'm full of!!! Along with fluoride and aspartame. I got it covered. lol |

i did really well on a sebile magic swimmer dont know what series it is but its the medium one about 6 or 7 inches in the black and gold...thats what i got all my fish on yesterday...u fished for a lil bit i got to the danm about 5:45 or so and got home almost at 3...danm my feet were FROZEN even with wool socks and all but must say it was quite a thrill to bend the Lami andmusic to my ears to hear the Staal sing...wanted to go again tonight but it will be a situation with all this danm wind but any diehards willin to go out tonight might give me some motivation to endure the brutal elements we are presented with now instead of that great weather we had last night..

I wouldn't eat anything from the Housy north of Derby, but stripers swim up from the Sound so, heck yeah, I'd eat 'em. My wife had me fixed years ago, anyway!

Same complaint for me...I would definitely have gone if I had more notice. I was going to wade the Farmington today but I slept until 3 p.m. instead. Rough weekend.

| Think I'm gonna run up there tonight. Gotta call my friend to see if he's down. I hit that expo in Hartford today and got some cheap plugs but the show was pretty lame. Went to Cabela's afterward and got some new toys to try. |

| Ha lmfao cabelas always makes out on the weekend of the shows.... I didnt do much today left my keys with pops he ended up going once he seen my yak on the car... Guess he got worried or suttin. I only got into a schoolie. Crappy day but was nice just to be in the yak and on the water... Been a lil while and kinda needed to just be out there... so yeah pops had keys which had my ruler on it im gonna guess 17-18" or so... Not gonna lie best eating... But he went back to live another day... All fish has stuff in it and if you eat it in moderation think you will be fine. Garlic takes metal outta your body and is the only thing that does that... being asain i eat enough and as for the other stuff in the fish look into canned tuna you shouldnt eat more than 3 cans a month crazy if you ask me i eat like 3 a week... aong with the other fish i catch.....lol i to also use fake sugar and smoke that shit will kill me first... As for fishing the housy wont be back till next weekend supposed to get 2-4 inches snow between tonight and tomorrow... But will mos def hit up the farmington soon... |
