Its terrible at the thames now .2 years ago I stopped fishing there, I still talk to some of the locals who still fish it all winter there has been 1 small school of small bass the laSt three years your lucky if you can catch 3 fish in a outing. I guess its been overfished.

Time for fall and winter golf, will shrink wrap the boat in a week or two after I get it back from my mechanic.

Anyone fish the Thames last year, is that fishery still viable in the winter, boy back in the day 50 fish was a slow day and my largest was a 42 lber on 10 lb flurocarbon.

Out on Cape Cod, I would fish until the water hit about 50 degrees, this year it's looking like the water temps will stay higher a little longer. In the Middle to Southern Chesapeake, the bigger fish will come through any time now, they will move slowly south as the water cools. The season will end on Dec 31, 2013 for me, unless you go down to NC.
