TMA 3/1
Message:
Saturday afternoon I hit the Mill River TMA. Arrived at the parking lot just before 3pm and headed straight for the honeyhole. When I got to the honeyhole I noticed thin ice had formed with all the cold weather we've been getting. There was 1 area of open water that is usually a good spot. Tried throwing a few Husky Jerks and a brown trout Flat Rap FLR-6 but had no luck. Saw 2 young men fishing there too with 2 throwing salmon eggs but they had no luck either. Later 2 fishermen came as I was leaving the honeyhole. Both threw nightcrawlers and later found out that they hit a few native brookies around 10". I went farther downstream where I stuck with the Husky Jerks and also tried bottom bouncing a 1/8 ounce marabou but had no luck. Casted with a glass minnow HJ-8 in deeper open water on the Lake Mohegan side of where the Mill River feeds in but never saw anything. Hit the road just after 5pm. 1 or 2 more weeks and I'll be there!!!
