I know …. I'm just getting antsy J
I am trying to track down info on early spring baits for the tidal rivers in LIS central (New Haven / Milford). I found some nice water this fall and would like to return in the spring (as early as possible J ). I have found a nice link so I can monitor water temps but I can't find a lot of info about seasonal bait fish, other then the late spring/summer/early fall "big bait" info. Long story short I tie fly's to winter over but can't seen to nail down what bait I will be trying to match for the spring and how early I could expect to try and get out there (once trout seasons opens it sort of becomes an obsession). I was hopping to get some spring Striper fishing in the early season, get the "trout thing" over with, and then come back to my striper waters late summer early fall. I have tried a few searches both here in the forum and in Google but I am just not getting what I am looking for (or what I want to hear just is not possible)
Thanks,
Jim
