Multi-Species Spring Fishing - Bantam River, CT

With wind gusts over 30mph and water temperatures below 40 degrees, it was a really difficult morning for kayak fishing. On this trip, I launched from the car top canoe/kayak launch at White Memorial Bridge and paddled down to where Bantam River empties into Bantam Lake in hopes of fishing my way back up to the launch. Unfortunately, high winds and a slow bite created a lackluster time on the water, but I was able to catch a few different variety of trout, a perch, and a largemouth bass.
