Naugatuck River Seymour 8/11
Message:
After a short trip to the Seymour Quarry and talking with Stephan from the site, my buddy and I went to the Naugy at the rapids around 6pm. My buddy was getting many hits and landed 4 smallmouths and lost a few all with a 2" chartreuse grub. My 3 main lures I played with were a brown trout Flat Rap FLR-6, glass minnow HJ-6, and 1" soft plastic crayfish. Caught 1 with each lure and lost a number. Later once the bite died down we walked downriver to see if there were any other access areas. Found a nice deeper area at the lower end of the small island. My buddy lost 2 and caught 1 with the grub there. I was into it with the brown trout FLR-6. Caught 2 largemouths and 2 smallmouths with the FLR-6. Also 1 redbreast with the crayfish. One of the smallies I caught did a 2 footer and fought on my new light action setup like a 2 pound brown. One of the smallies he lost grabbed a 2 1/2" FinS right as it hit the water before snapping his line. By the time it was getting closer to sunset, we called it a day. Here's one of my buddy's catches at the rapids. They were in the 6" to 10" range there.
