Connecticut River Striper Fishing Report

went out this afternoon, pretty chill weather and clear skies. the bite was decent! got 3 stripers, biggest was around 28 inches. used a crankbait. nice to finally fish without rain for a change. had a good time with pals!

wow heavy rain today! but ya know what they say, the fish gotta eat too right? caught a small striper using a live eel, was a fun surprise! also lost a big one at the boat, heartbreaking but that’s fishing i guess

today was a bit better, caught 2 decent stripers during those light showers. used a soft plastic bait that kept getting nibbled on. the weather cleared up a bit later, just hanging out by the river was nice!

meh day fishing with patchy rain, didn’t catch anything but saw a lot of jumping fish. used a blue and white spoon but they weren’t having it. i think they were just messing with me. maybe better luck next time!

another rainy day on the river, didn’t expect much but ended up landing 2 nice ones! broke out the old topwater lure, and they were biting. was soaked but it was worth it for sure! great feeling when you pull in a striper in the rain.
