The Thames River starts in Norwich Harbor (downtown Norwich CT) and ends in New London, empties right at the Race in the Sound.

There has been a great winter fishery there for many years. There was a post recently by a Charter Captain, he and a client tagged and released over 70 fish.

There is a launch right at the harbor. However, there is very little parking there.

Don, take extra notice of GS's Big Smiley Face in his post, he knows fishing the shadows of Mohegan Sun and at the "Rose of New England" harbor fairly well...

Speaking of wierd fish from both "The Toilet" and the Thames, here is a midly deformed Thames River fish....
