I noticed that the fish key lists all types of fish with their corresponding abbreviations but under the Mill river it lists the abbreviation BN which is nowhere listed in the key. What does it stand for? Or is it just wrong? It also appears above it I believe on Mill Brook.

Could be an abbreviation for BROWN NUGGETS, most commonly found floating in the Quinnipiack R. and N.H. Harbor grin grin.


Sorry Mike couldn't resist. Hope ya get a serious answer here soon.

"BN" stands for wild brown trout in the older angler guides.
