Nice catching Bronzeback. How's the water level at Colebrook, and is the gate still open? At McDonough, are you fishing at the handicapped pier?

Thanks for the update, maybe I'll hit Colebrook next week, after the temperature comes back up a little. My climbing down banks, and back up again are over.LOL.

Yeah the only place I've considered trying was the concrete pier. When I've been in my boat, I've never seen anyone catching anything but stocked Trout from there.
