Fredfish Loc: Prospect CT.

Went to a small lake over near the Connecticut River this morning. Water temperature 60.5°, wind blowing 10mph, gusts to 15. Started in the shallow north cove, nothing. Worked the shoreline to the dam cove on the east side, only getting a bunch of short strikes, probably panfish. Worked the large, shallow flats on the south end of the lake, one follow up, but no takers. Couldn't see any beds on the flats, surprisingly with the 60°+water. A couple guys catching yellow perch on the flat. Worked my way up the west side and had a Pickerel bite a Dinger in half at the boat. I was starting to smell a wiff of SKUNK (along with hamburgers on a grill). I started heading towards the ramp, and decided to hit the north cove again before I leave. Since the dinger was half gone, I threw a wacky General in June Bug on. 2nd cast into the cove and BAM! A nice solid hit, took some line and I thought it might be a pike, but one jump in the middle of the cove confirmed Largemouth. Got her in the boat, 2lb 6oz. Whew, that was a close one. Decided to quit while I was ahead, and before the wind got worse.

Finally getting Green around here.

Thanks guys, I was getting worried.... LOL
Yeah FD, everything looks better when it starts greening up. Most trees are still in buds at my house, but this little lake is at the beginning of the Connecticut River Valley. Slightly warmer in the valley, probably a week or two ahead of ours.

Not mine, I was talking to the guy who lives there, and his poodle, while working the shoreline. I thought they were stuffed at first, because the fur looked real.
