Maybe its less than serendipitous, but I've got a free day here in
Southern Connecticut (Clinton, near New Haven) and could use some
insights of a good spot to fish for a half-day later this week before
I fly back to Hong Kong.

Anyone know the turf?

lived in CT for a few years......The nearest stream to fish is the
Housatonic. It is fed by a bottom-release dam, and probably has the best
August water temps you could hope for.

Tom,

I think you have the Housatonic confused with the Farmington. There is
good smallmouth fishing in the Housy in August, but the only trout
fishing I can think of would be in the Farmington.

I'll stand corrected, but have seen the Farmington get pretty warm in
August. Never fished the Housy at that time of year, but I figured it would
be fishable, up near the dam. Don't they have a whitefly hatch?? If you are
correct, there is nothing wrong with smallies, and the Housy should be
easier for Myron to get to than the Farmington.
