CT River Action

I have been enjoying some great action,(therapy), on hard fighting smallmouth in the Connecticut river since Friday. I also caught several fall fish and a monster carp that I thought was a huge striper after its initial screaming run. It was an epic battle on my light gear for sure, and to catch it in the mouth was cool.
Here’s a sampling of the fish. Go get em!

Very nice, an interesting day for sure!!!

The fish in the last pic wasn't a "Fall Fish"... It was the elusive New England Freshwater MIniature Tarpon???

Catching fish like that is a very good therapy, a short release from life problems, keep at it.

Very nice fish! Beautiful Smallmouth, and that beefy carp must have been a great adrenaline rush! Good stuff!

Great smallies Jon. That carp must have given you a battle.

Wow great stuff, is a fallfish an overgrown “dace”?

wow! way to get on some nice fish.

Light tackle carp are a blast !

Very nice catching those beauties.Glad you gottem dialed in.Keep them coming Jon.

Great job Jon!!!!

Man, you have dialed in the smallmouth bite over the years. Those are quality fish!

Great stuff Jon!
