Savayman Posted March 28, 2019 Report Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) The Fish-In for Sunday April 7th (the day after the Conference) is on! The Venue: Harbor Park, Middletown CT When: Dawn - Dusk It looks like the weather will be kind to us this year and the CT River while still a bit cold is very fishable. Harbor Park has seen some memorable catches over the recent years. Important Information! - Simple Oats / Sweetcorn method around the lead works very well here. - It is a 6-8 ft drop to the water. Please bring a long handled net, drop net or use a Retainer Sling with ropes attached to land & release fish. We'll have some extra nets and slings available. - Park ONLY in the designated areas. Do NOT park in the area around the Canoe Club Restaurant! - Space is limited so please use a maximum of 2 rods. - CT Fishing Licences are Available at the Fishing Factory 238 E Main St, Middletown, CT 06457 or on-line Click Here and Choose On Line Sportsmen Licensing System - This is a Public Park. No Alcohol or Fires allowed and All Trash must be removed Space is limited so If you want to fish (CAG Members and Conference Attendees will get priority) please add you name below in a reply to this topic: Parking info: Edited March 28, 2019 by (CT) Savayman Quote
Savayman Posted April 2, 2019 Author Report Posted April 2, 2019 We are monitoring the CT River carefully... The flow is up due to recent snow melt up north and temps stuck around 40F. Steve Clow took a look along Harbor Park in his lunch break today and said he could hold bottom with 5oz at 25yds out with 2 hours before low tide (so very much on the outgoing). Low tide on Sunday is 9:52 am so it should be fishable from around 9 am until around 3pm. One positive is that the higher water level will make netting fish easier! Quote
