Sorry not from CT, but You could start here http://www.goingoutside.com/lakestates/ct.html

Good for You! Shoulda threw one of those minnows at that guy in the 25K boat ;D

I've done fairly well at Lake Newton the past few years, but not this year. One largemouth in about 8-10 outtings. Looking for another source I tried Hopkins Pond and Evans Pond. Nadda...didn't see anything resembling a fish. Any bass left in South Jersey? :'(

D.O.D. lake? :-? I've fished the DOD (Delaware River for stripers). Where's D.O.D. lake?

You can get some great deals on eBay. Picked up a spool of Mustad Thor Ultra Line 12 lb Green, 4790 yds for $8.99. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=250140600830

Thanks for the info I contacted Abu-Garcia, but they said they did not make that reel.

Was wondering if Anyone knows Who makes this model (Sportfisher 450 ZR), and where I might be able to get a handle for it. Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply What weight are You using (10 LB, 12 LB, etc.)

Anyone familiar with this fishing line (Mustad Thor Ultra Line)? I recently picked up some Stren 6 Lb Lo-Vis, and am not too thrilled with it :

Welcome aboard

If I don't catch anything on the first cast, I move to a different lake Kidding aside...I usually give any good looking spot an hour, or so. As the others have stated, try changing lures, colors, and depth. Keep in mind, as the old saying goes..."If they ain't there, they ain't there :-?". Time to move on.

Thanks for all the replies. I'll follow Your tips, and hopefully land more fish

I seem to be missing alot of fish :-[. I was out today, and caught 4 fish, but missed about half a dozen. Had one half way in, and got off . One right up to the bank, and got off (both largemouths). Three or four I missed completely. Any tips on properly setting the hook? The lures I'm using are in-line spinnerbaits, and mostly brand new (straight with sharp hooks). Thanks
