weakfish

[JLH]

Made a point of targeting them this year after having not caught one in probaby 20 years. Skunked the first attempt but landed three small ones on my last trip. Was cool just seeing one again. Hope they can stage a comeback and spread to more areas.

The last 3 years I have caught weakfish in Ct in may, and I do not fish at the WH spot where everyone and their brother goes to fish for them...

Ive caught them at 3 separate spots, all are sandy beaches with a decent rip someplace, i usually find them during the top half of the incoming / slack high / first 2 hrs of the drop. spots as far south as southern fairfield CT / NY border up the ct coast to NH county...

this year they seem to be smaller then the past 2 years, or maybe its still just earlier due to the cold spring we are having for the tiderunners we got lucky with last year.

this year I've been trying my hardest to get one on the flyrod, so far no luck with the fairy wand!
