Water Temperature: 58
Water Clarity: 2-3 feet I'm back for my second report. Based on the feedback with my canoe dilemma I have decided my wife & I can lay it accross the living room and use it for guest seating. (We'll call it the Venice motif) Thank you all for the decorating suggestions.
The 40 degrees, drizzle, and slight hangover from a close friends wedding did not keep me from giving it a go this last Sunday. I think the calm day is what intrigued me. (Canoe guys know what I am talking about). As always, set out from the CR Boat House and headed towards Waltham. Surprisingly, in 2-3 hours I caught 6 fish. All were small... 1-1.5lbs. You can tell the fish are getting less active. The takes were subtle and they are not fighting, with several of the fish I thought I was bringing in branches only to discover it was a fish. All on senkos. I am working them with very slow retrieves, jigging, although they seem to hit when I lift the rod tip and the senkos is dropping and doing it's thing. I am still finding them under cover in about 4 feet of water with deeper water very close by. It turned out to be a nice day after the drizzle passed... Nobody on the river, the water was like glass, and the reflections from the foliage as the sun set made for a nice late afternoon...(just creating imagery here for you sentimental fishers).
Hope to get back out!!!! Bass-o-matic
