Anybody see the bristol press today?
There is a pic of a guy who caught a 47 pound striper north of Hartford.. Thats one huge fish. I figured all the striper would be out of the river by now.

I stopped fishing for stripers about 3 weeks ago due to lack of action and shallow water. I only fished above Hartford and this is the only decent fish I've even heard of coming out of that area this year. Hard to imagine a lot of big stripers swimming in 2' of water. When the channel is only 8' deep and the rest of the river is 2', where are they going to go? It's not like it has been in the past up here (I live in Enfield) and we can thank Holyoke Dam for that one. The sun must have been shining on this guy. Great for him, but next year I will be fishing for stripers from haddam down - period. Tired of wasting my time fishing 100 miles up river in 2' of water expecting to find fish.
