Rivers End (Old Saybrook)

• STRIPED BASS- They're still in Hamburg Cove but its thinned out since last week. The Connecticut River is still flooding and the forecast for the next few days will have the River flooding for at least another week. This doesn't mean you can't catch bass, its just more difficult and hazardous. Hamburg Cove seems to clean up faster than the rest of the River so check that out. Another place bass seem to congregate in flooding conditions is off Griswold Point to the east of the mud line. They've got some schoolies at the West Wall this week but the main push hasn't started yet. Worm dunkers have been getting schoolies at the DEP Piers and up by the East Haddam Boat Launch.
• FLOUNDER- Well the first push of flats has fizzled, the next hope is as waters warm a bit in Niantic they'll be a few fish similar to last Spring.
• FLUKE FISHING SEMINAR: Saturday April 14th at 11am- Fluke Fishing with Bob Sampson. Its less than a month away the start of the season, get set with some proven techniques and locations.
• Saltwater Fly Fishing School with Lou Tabory- April 28th. We have three openings left. This is a great day for the beginning and intermediate angler. Call us for details. (Pat Abate, Rivers End Tackle, 440 Boston Post Rd, Old Saybrook, CT 860-388-2283).
