The Stamford area freshwater fishing is okay and the saltwater is picking up. Lot's of trout caught in the area with the usual trout baits (meally, trout & earth worms, shiners and lures).

The saltwater action included "a 32-inch striped bass... caught off Cummings Beach.... using clams for bait", Darien gave us a 26" school and a 34" striper using a 10" Finesse lure". Schoolie stripers were caught while bucktailing out in Greenwich Cove.

Winter flounder seems to be doing well in the area. Reports of flounder being caught last week while fishing Stamford Harbor with sandworms and attracted by clam chum.
