Westhill on Sat 6-22-13, any tips?
Message:
My wife and I are hitting westhill on Sat. late afternoon early evening. Probably do some trollin for trout (her favorite to eat) and then maybe some smallie and LMB action to finish up the outing. I have fished the lake before, but it has been a long time. Hated all the rock bass, so shinners for LMB & SMB was difficult. Any tips, hot spots or recent catches to get the blood going? If ya see a red (for now, painting it camo soon) canoe with outriggers and a trollin motor, wave and say hi. Peace and have a wonderful weekend everyone. Loose lips and tight lines.

Two words: Drop Shot.
Look for the submerged island that's marked with buoys and the deeper hump that's next to it toward the boat launch ramp:

Now you've gotten me wanting to go. :lol:

Thanks PECo. Me and the wife never made it out. Is was sick all weekend. Not too happy and I was really excited to get out on the water. But, vacation is coming up soon so I am sure I will be out there one day during that. Thanks for the info. And the map. I do however have that DEEP book of all the lakes and ponds in Ct. and never knew about a submerged or under the surface Island. I may have to find this island. Thanks again. And Fish on!
