A Day On The CT River With Carp13
I launch under the RT291 bridge in Wilson and headed down to E. Hartford Launch to pick up Carp13 to do some striper fishing. It was cloudy with off and on rain the river was up and dirty water temp was 59-61 degrees. We started a drift in front of Wethersfield Cove with no takers. We went in to Keeney Cove to try for bass and pike. We fish way into the woods and around most edges, Carp13 caught a nice chained pickerel on jerk bait and I caught one a few cast later on a Stretch 40. we fish our way to the bridge were carp13 caught a 3 plus large mouth. We crossed over the bridge and I caught a bass on some wood. We then went under the highway and Carp13 caught a crappie. I the gave Carp13 a ride at 25 mph out of Keeney cove back onto the river for some lunch while we trolled and that produced nothing so we headed back.
Don I think you might be short-changing me on that bass,the more I look at the pictures the more I think that had to be pushing five,atleast 4.5lbs...lol
