CT Bass Report - last day maybe

Yeah went out with my little bro Steffan yesterday - same place we
always go - I caught 4 dinks on Senko's while trolling. That was it !

Nothing in the shallows, not even perch or crappie on bettle-spins !

I think we may be done until Spring I dunno...

Those fish were mighty cold when I pulled them out of the water !

Hey K - how do you troll a Senko?

Come on, Sean, you know better than that! You've been to the Hudson with
me in November. Remember all the fish we caught in water a LOt colder
that you're seeing now? There was a tourney up at Twin yesterday. Big
fish was just under 7. an 8 fish (team) limit of a shade under 25 pounds
won it. One team only had 4 fish, but they weighed 21 pounds! There was
another tourney on Amos on Saturday. Big fish was within an nounce and a
half of 8 pounds and it took 22 pounds to win with a 6 fish limit. Now
is the time, Bubba!

Great numbers Rich - how big are these lakes? I've never heard of any of
them.

Twin is, as the name implies, 2 connected lakes. It's in the extrem NW
corner of the sate. East Twin is about 500 acres. Deep and gin clear.
The only lake in CT with a verified Zebra mussel population. Used to be
the anchor of CT's kokanee salmon program. Until someone introduced
alewives into it. The sawbellies out competed the kokanee for plankton
and destroyed that fishery. But they made it a trophy brown trout and
bass lake. West Twin is about 300 acres, but it's really two little
lakes -- round pond and long pond. The vast majority of the good weights
yesterday came from round pond in west twin, although the big fish of
the tourney came from east twin.

Amos is over toward the SE corner, and if memory serves, isn't 200 acres.

There's no better time for big fish in these smaller natural lakes in
the northeast than November. When the weeds start to die off in earnest
and the fish make their seasonal movements from the expansive food
shelves to the basin, all you gotta do is know one or two transition
breaks, and wait for another biggy to come by.

Man wish I could figure that out, very small lakes and very limited to areas
with deep water, you would think it would be easy pickings, but with snow on
the ground this morning(not much) the temps are just ugly(air and water)..29
degrees(air) 38 degrees(water) at the shoreline sigh............
