 |
|
Now that I have a second child in the family, I for see having to
get some fishing in, at the wee hours..ie;4 and 5am.
With that said, I am trying to find out if there are gate closings/openings at some of our state parks and other spots.
I am not going to rattle off a bunch of places but I for see hitting the following places when I have time in the earrrrly morning
Scoville
Mamanasco
Little Meadow pond, Middlebury
Black pond, Middlefield
Thanks in advance for any insight |

Hey, Pete! One of the soon to be implemented regulations is a closed season on Scoville from the last day of February to the second Saturday in April.

Hey Phil!
Thanks for the heads up.
I will have to be creative with some of my yak outings..and I predict I will be on the water very early in the morning this year.
My biggest fear was getting to a launch and having the gates closed. |

| I believe Scoville closes at dark. Long Meadow should be no problem outside of maybe PD running your plates. Last I knew all the flood control areas close at dark. Did you consider trying Winnamaug. |

I just checked it out online after reading your suggestion.
It looks like a place I should add to the roster.
Thanks |

Another lake you should check out is Lake Kenosia.
There's a small dirt parking area over by the Still River bridge on Kenosia Rd and they don't bother you there. Kenosia is a great place to get into spring and early summer crappie and largemouths, esp an evening topwater bite at 1 certain spot. |
