Had my ole fishing buddy
Josh
back in the saddle today for a CT River trip. We were on my boat twice a week the last few years but our schedules just haven't lined up and he now lives in deep river so i went to his neck of the woods. We hit lower river in
search of 1 thing. Stripers... Not schoolies The morning bite i expected before we had bright skies really never developed. A few rolls and rises but no hook ups until about 6:30 id say. Started it off with a decent schoolie then a 28.25 incher on top.
Very next cast josh hooks up with a just short fish but it was fat and gave him a solid fight. Pulling some serious drag and going under the boat a few times. The fish we did catch today were great fighters and it was such a
nice morning that catching some fish was just the bonus. Plenty of
herring around all morning and i really think the fishing is going to get really good in the next week or two depending on the rains. Last year right as things started to heat up we got a two day rain storm and ruined the spring run. Forcast doesnt look good but fingers crossed the weather holds out and we get the opportunity to get some stupid good fishing. Got our
fish on slug go's and cobra bait sad shads. Thank for coming dude and
happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there! Fished from 5am-11am water temps were up to 62 in the river! If you need any sad shads hit up www.cobrabait.com and talk to John. He has been pouring baits all week trying to keep up. Get your spot in line
