Saw a lot more herring last year than in 2005 - may have just been the areas I'm fishing. Had some nights where they were getting snagged on the trebbles of my plugs... No idea yet about this year - just wish the water would come down!!
It dropped pretty good last night. Won't be long now. If the amount of herring in the Thames is anyway an indicator of the run in the CT, we should have a pretty good year.
fished the Westfield and the Chicopee this A.M. ----No shad yet---unusual to get skunked in both places. Ct. River had three or four boats that I saw probably looking for stripers and/or shad. Water levels should stabilize in a few days---hopefully the fishing will too.
I heard from a reliable source this weekend that there were a few areas loaded with herring last year that don't reflect the numbers indicated. However, I was at my inlaws yesterday and there was nothing...
