BRK TRT: I'm thinking of taking a day off from work (Boston) this month and fishing an eastern Connecticut river for browns and/or rainbows (I know and respect your affection for the smaller streams, but it's browns on a 5-wt that occupy my daydreams). Could I ask your recommendation? I'm a...

Has anyone been on the Wood River this month enough to know the flows and hatches at mid-summer? I have a chance to spend a few hours on hit this weekend, and can't help but to reach out for a little advanced intelligence. I fished it last year at about this time of year and seem to recall the...

Anyone seen the cage for a STH Cayuga-Small for sale, new or used? I've been collecting spools for that reel out of dusty bins in fly shops all over, and now have every conceivable line for my 5-wt on its own spool. When I went to buy a back-up to protect that minor "investment", it came to my...

That is a tremendous fish for the Quashnet, from what I'm told of it. I'd be pleased for a private message of suggestion. I live not far from it, but would not have thought of fishing it until a little farther into the early spring. Think of it: wild trout, on Cape Cod, in February. It's the...

The veteran I talked to on the way off the river indicated he thought that they'd be stocking this week.

I thought I'd append to this thread my report of fishing on the Wood River yesterday morning. It was a perfect morning for fishing, althought the flow of the river was slower than I was expecting after all the rain the previous two days. It's only the second time I've fished it, so I actually...

Thanks. I did fish Saturday evening, just above the bridges in the town of Woodstock. It's tremendous pocket water right there. But there were no insects hatching that I observed, and I didn't hook into any fish, if they were there. Only had about 90 minutes on the water. I'll be interested...

I'd appreciate the board's help (on this thread or in a private message) getting oriented to fishing the Ottauquechee. I've got a brief opportunity tomorrow evening to fish it, while in Woodstock on some family business, and will need to be efficient with where and how I fish it. I'll have a...

There is indeed a dam at Elm Street, where the stream is known as Indian Head. Public access is just east/downstream from there about 3/8th of a mile. The Mass Wildlife website indicates they stock it in the spring. I'll give it a try at some point this fall and let you all know how I make out.

Anyone ever fished for trout in this tributary of the larger North River in eastern Massachusetts? I "discovered" it today on a detour off the main highway in to Boston, and it certainly looks like a stream that would support trout.
