We have always had over-wintering fish.
It's that we just don't get out to fish for them when it's below freezing out.
Remember that there are fish caught in the Thames in RI, so it's not that far fetched to presume they aren't holding over elsewhere.
Heck, they've found spawning bass in local rivers over the past 5-10 years, so holding over isn't impossible to consider.
NOW catching a holdover KEEPER is another thing......
