CT freshwater fans are lucky to have plenty of places to catch and release trout during the "closed" season. The mild conditions this past winter really benefited trout survival too. Some amazing holdover and wild trout have been brought to the net already this year. However, I still partake in Opening Day festivities if nothing more than for the tradition of camping with my uncle who taught me the ropes. Ever since I was a youngster, the third weekend of April has been set aside for a camping, relaxing and fishing. The actual fishing takes a backseat to the eating, laughing and lounging. Over the years, a one night stay has developed into a three night binge. I just placed an order for 200 fresh clams and oysters to shuck around the fire. Can't wait!
