    Shad, bunker, or herring? Don't you guys have herring that winter in the housatonic? I read an article here that said the bass stack up in an unnamed place up there, you can catch em in the coldest weather by drifting the channels, or something like that. Nothing huge, but you can catch double or triple digits if you hit the right spot, boat is needed.

    thats right DS,
    if you remember my buddy[Steve Franco] thats like a brother to me that caught the CT. record bass back in 92,he has caught them through the ice on that river many times.
    I believe there is a fully functional spawning population there.you can catch fully pregnant females there in early april and very late march!
