^^Lostatsea, the guy's arms are fully extended, making it look bigger than it is. It's still a hefty salmon, looks like it could be 20. Didn't get the exact weight, still a nice fish.
The Ct River holds a lot of species of fish. Here's a show they did on it, nice LMB, sent in by R-P, thanks!
Night crawlers are the universal FW bait, they will catch everything even the biggest bass and pickerel. In the summer when the fish get sluggish and only feed in the morning and at dusk, they will almost always hit a night crawler. Nice pics extremevisions.
