Connecticut Lakes Region Fishing Report: 5/7

Connecticut River Fishing Report: 5/3

The salmon are in at the Magalloway Bridge between Second Connecticut Lake and First Connecticut Lake as of yesterday morning. The flow as of a couple of days ago was at 300 CFS, but was dropped down to 69 CFS today, so the fish may drop back to First Lake if that remains so. Hopefully the rain in the forecast this weekend will help boost the flow and keep those salmon running up the river.

5/22 Fishing Report

Well, we survived yesterday’s events. The less said the better on that …

Lots of reports today, from all over Pittsburg, with most on the good side. You know what the saying is: “A bad day of fishing is better than a good day at work”, and we’ve been testing that theory lately. The weather was good today, so maybe that made a difference. We’ll hope there’s more good weather on the way.
