CT River North On Fathers Day - 06/17/19 09:27 AM

Not much to report, but it's better than not reporting.
Perfect cloudy, drizzly conditions screamed for a top water bite.
I threw a few different baits, but managed only 1 smallie and had 3 or 4 half hearted rolls and pushes.
Went deep with an alewive colored whale tail grub from our old member Findbass on a 3/8 head and managed 1 schoolie and had another swipe at it at my feet which was a surprise.
Oh...and I have a hole in my waders up around my crotch...that felt fantastic.
Not a great adventure but still fun being out there.
Salvaged the day with a trip to Bears Smokehouse and Problem Solved brewery for some much needed food and hydration.

That leak is for spring time air conditioning!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not many fish but I bet it felt good being out there!

You also topped off the day with stops at a couple great places! beerchug

Worth the trip just for the bar-b-que and beer.

Glad you got out. You got couple and you had some close enough to keep you interested. You ate well. I will take a day like that anytime.

I want to throw for smallies from my boat in the Windsor area the weekend of June 29th. I will post a notice is the fishing partner forum when it gets closer and I get my timing (Saturday or Sunday down). Hoping you or another site member might join me.

Tight Lines,
