Sadly haven't posted b/c I haven't been out fishing much, but I've made 3 events thus far this year. Not going to lie, the turnout for the kid's day was a shame - you could tell so much effort went into organizing it but there were very few kids.

Can't say that I see very many young kids on the water when we do get to be out - declining enrollment in schools in my area, parents are either more preoccupied with themselves than their kids or struggling to get by and have no free time - either way evidence points to CT being no place to raise a family.

God knows we want out, too much family rooted here for us to leave though. Virtually all my friends from growing up here have left CT with the exception of a small handful, and those that are gone all seem the happier for it.
