I took a chance and made a trip today before the rain showed up. Launched at 11 and pulled off in the rain at 1 pm. Air temperature was 41, water temp was 49. Rain wasn't supposed to come in until mid afternoon so that shortened my trip by

After finishing up my "have to do" list this morning, I headed off to try to hook a few fish on a chilly fall day. Clouds were clearing slowly, air temp was 47 when I pushed off the beach at 1pm with water temperature 57-58 degrees.

It was a simply spectacular day here in in CT, felt like mid June; 75 degrees, bluebird skies and very little wind. I had to top it off with a quick trip to see what might be biting. Launched about 4:45 and pulled off at 6:30. No wind to speak

After working firewood, running a bunch of errands and attending a "virtual" wedding, I packed up the boat and headed out for a short trip. Launched at 4:30 with a breeze out of the northwest but I felt that it would lay down before

I should have known better.....
I worked around the homestead here and kept an eye on the weather and especially the breeze. I hoped to have a chance to get out on the water after the chores were done but not if it was still windy. Seemed

Had an opportunity to get in another trip after work and launched about 4:45. Fairly strong breeze from the SSE but I expected that and expected also that it would lay down before too long and it did, thankfully. Air temperature was 68, water

Conditions seemed to be perfect for a good trip; upper 70's, pretty much calm winds, sun getting more and more hidden behind the haze from the fires out west, so I headed out from work an hour early to take advantage of it all. Launched about

Like Rich and Walt, weatherman here was calling for chance of showers, better chance for them in the afternoon so I rolled the dice and headed out, hoping to get a trip in before they arrived. I checked the radar before I left; we'd had a light

After running errands all morning, I checked the weather and decided an afternoon siesta and then a trip to the pond would be a good way to spend the rest of my Saturday. I'm glad I waited as we began to get some intermittent cloud cover and

Being the middle of the week, I took a chance that the new pond might not be quite as busy in the evening as it was on a bright, sunny, warm Sunday afternoon. I was correct, as there were no other boats out, and just an older couple lounging

I had to take advantage of the fine day we had here yesterday. Although it was hot at 88, the humidity was very low and comfortable with just a hint of a breeze. Perfect conditions for a trip to the pond to see what might be biting. I launched

My long time partner finally found some time to join me fishing so we took a trip back to our favorite water (which shall remain nameless!) We hit the water about 9:30 and started a slow circuit of the pond. Water temperature was 67, air temp

After completing my obligations on Sunday, I found a reserve of energy and decided to load up and see if I could add a few more fish to the freezer. I launched about 4:30 and called it a night about 7 with darkness falling quickly. No one was

Yesterday was an overcast and very calm day around here ( I just knew they'd be biting) so I packed up and headed to my favorite calm water to see if I could add a few to the freezer. I got on the water about 5 and pulled off at 7 when the

A very nice "fall is not far off" kind of day here in the Northeast, as Rich posted in his report. After work I loaded up and headed for the pond for a couple of hours to see if I could hook a few. Launched at 4:40 and pulled off

Finally, a welcome change to our weather here in CT. Instead of hot, extremely humid weather, with severe thunderstorm warnings, tornado watches and warnings, torrential downpours, etc., I awoke to temps in the low 60's with very pleasant humidity
