The last three years, the Thames has turned on two weeks ahead of the CT. I doubt this year will be different. As the fish turn the corner at Montauk and squeeze between there and Block Island on the migration, RI is the closest, then the Thames and then the CT River.
Those were definately hold overs. We hear of bass getting caught in the shad gill nets down at the mouth of the CT which signals the beginning of the run. The shad netters have only begun fishing this year, and they are getting few shad. Have not heard of any striped bass in the nets yet. When I here about the bycatch is when I begin to look for the fish south of Hartford. A week or two later they can be found further up river.
