Hinsdale Conn River
I got a chance to get away and fish with my good buddy Ed on the Conn. River LAST SAT. truely a treat as he got to show me the river at 65 mph (my eyes have not stopped fluttering)and we scored a lot of smallies in the 2 - 3 lb range. Typical of the river the situation was smallies to the north, and though we did not get back down to the south before 1 pm we managed a single lm down south. I caught my first walleye a 1 1/2 lb monster and got to see, Rapidly a lot of the river, which we get to fish next week in a club tourny. Our smallies came from skinny water in the 2-3 ft range and wood was key to locating them. Baits used were senkos and my trusty mojo lizard, which did not catch up in the snags as expected. I rolled a big fish down south in the power station discharge, species unknown, and Ed caught a small Lm on a frog. Can't wait to go back and catch some more river Sms, but I may stay south and try for some early Lms 1st. Great day with a great friend that I do not get to fish with enough! Thanks Ed!
