New to site. I grew up fishing in Bridgeport, pulling trout out of Beardsley Park and Lake Mohegan. Since I could hold a rod, my fondest memories have been of catching (and eating) Connecticut fish. I remember Herring fishing off of Bond's Dock and digging for clams near Sherwood Island. Lots of Blues and Striper fishing in the Sound. Believe it or not, my mom had a few delicious bluefish recipes, so we always had food on the table. To this day I still love fishing for snapper blues, especially when I break up the time by pulling Blue Crabs out of the CT River on the DEP pier in Old Saybrook with my nieces and nephews. Looking forward to some ice fishing this winter, hopefully. I picked up some tip-ups this past year, so I just need to find a spot, maybe Black Rock. I'd like to meet a couple buddies to ice fish with, it makes the cold more bearable, plus I don't have an auger :wink:

Welcome aboard! Speaking of bluefish recipes, I had some smoked bluefish pate at Island Creek Oyster Bar in Boston last week that was a pleasant surprise. It was absolutely delicious, although I still prefer bluefish just scored through the skin, sprinkled with salt and pepper, and just thrown on the grill until it's slightly charred.
