Rainbow Reservoir?
Message:
So I understand that there are some lakes that are closed until opening day. Why is Rainbow Reservoir closed - does anyone know? I checked the anglers guide and according to it, its open all year. Also I checked where I could on the DEP website and didnt see anything. Usually on the weekly fishing report sometimes there will be closings but of course that hasnt been something since Feb 28th. It was extremely disappointing towing my boat 30 minutes away to find out I couldnt launch there and that it was closed...

Hi, Rainbow Res. is an impoundment part of the "Lower Farmington River". Under listing "Lower Farmington River" Anglers Guide -> Rt 177 bridge to Rainbow Dam is listed as trout waters and thus closed till Opening Day. Below the dam is designated tidal waters and open year round. Only those waters listed above the Rt. 177 bridge have special year round regulations. SeaDog1

I was under the impression it was open as well. Oh well better to know for sure. It's open in a few days :)
