Conn. River Report from 9/4/14
Message:
ok so we headed out of the Riverside launch in Hartford and went as far as we could before we were in three ft. of water, just past the Bissell bridge. Couldn't quite get to the mouth of the Farmington river. Decided to turn around and fish the way back to the launch. Very shallow! We have a flat bottom Tracker and it was touchy. Anyway, we slammed the Smallies with Yum Dingers on a drop shot rigs. Plan on going again this week but heading south for deeper water. Did I mention SHALLOW?[img][/[URL=http://s1231.photobucket.com/user/just2dinosaurs/media/9192014292.jpg.html][img:e2ce22e6e6]http://i1231.photobucket.com/albums/ee506/just2dinosaurs/9192014292.jpg[/img:e2ce22e6e6][/URL]img]

Drop-shotting Dingers? Nice. It's weird how slow the bite has been on the river. It's the warm water, I think. It's been around 80 degrees everywhere. In the morning, yesterday, Dan1 (aka Dan) and I found largemouth bass tucked up tight to big cover with wacky-rigged five inch Senkos, especially trees and shrubs with green leaves that were bent over into the water, down at Dart Island State Park. Black with Large Blue Flake seemed to be the most attractive pattern of the day, although our two best fish picked up Green Pumpkin with Red Flake. I DID manage to get ONE largemouth bass with a white Cavitron buzzbait over shallow weeds, though: [img:acb62b8310]http://img540.imageshack.us/img540/2114/aHCVrR.jpg[/img:acb62b8310] I think that Dan would be miffed at me if I failed to mention he caught the three pound, seven ounce lunker: [img:acb62b8310]http://img910.imageshack.us/img910/2079/r8tvPM.jpg[/img:acb62b8310] Happy, now, Dan? :lol:

Yes, but that was the 2lbs 7oz fish I caught later in the day. Had my hat off in the morning. :D Unfortunately I don't think I have enough posts to post the picture.
