First Trip To Moodus Resivor
It was so cold yesterday that i had to get out today, and even though the sky looked as though it may open up any second it did not. The wind was the major pain of the day. It was ok but then a gust would come along and i would be moving along about 5 in my yak not so great for contact baits. I started with a worm on one pole and a jig on the other. I was throwing the worm in open water and the jig in the wood or in the pockets. Started off nice with the large fish for the day at 4lbs. I measured it twice due to coming out at 4 exactly. It was buried in a tree, and even though it did not do any crazy maneuvers between his pull and the wind i ended up in the tree with the fish. I got a great hook set in the top of his mouth so even though i had to untangle the line from the tree he was just waiting when i got done. Thank god for braid as i got untangled and resumed the fight. I only got one hit on the jig all day, despite throwing it off and on all day. The worms i threw did not take a single strike, and the crankbait took the most fish by far. Five LMB two PIKS, and one Perch.
this is a nice bit of water havent been there in a couple years as i dont head east of the river to often but with the promising report like this may just see me again soon
