Question

We've been hitting Keeney and White Oak a bunch this Summer with great results, always starting around 5:00AM. We've noticed a lot of shiners or small baitfish jumping shortly after dawn each time we've been out. As we were entering the canal leaving Wethersfield Cove that heads into the CT River yesterday morning, these small fish were all over place jumping out of the water. So many that we probably could have caught some of them with a net. Each time we've fished within this activity, we've barely caught anything. We've thrown Rapalas into the flurry mostly. I'm going on the assumption that there is a larger fish species feeding on them, pushing them to the surface. Is this true? If so, what species is hunting them? And finally, what lure works to catch the larger species? Thanks. -Eric

Here's a recent pic of a 3-4lb. pickerel we caught. [img:5024b08951]http://www.ctfishtalk.com/gallery2.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=21711[/img:5024b08951]
