Thank you. Hopefully next year will be better for all of us, both with respect to overall health, and to fishing. Merry Christmas to you and yours too.

Yes. I was amazed when I got him out of the river.

Harry from New Hampshire here. I just wanted to share a picture of a Big Bream that i caught in the Connecticut river in late September on my last trip before the weather started turning and I put the boat away. My wife took a picture of it, but I really didn't realize how big this fist was until I was showing this picture to my daughter the other day. I measured my hand from the wrist to the tip of my middle finger and the length is 5 1/2 inches. It's proof that there are some really big fish in the Connecticut river, and next year I'll catch more of them. Merry Christmas to all.

We have Bluegills up here too, but that one wasn't as colorful as the Bluegills I've caught. I think the big one that I caught was what dad called a Chinquapin. In either case, they are all from the Bream species, but that is splitting hairs.
