Where on the Lake do you boat?

I run out of Port Stanley. 16 miles gets you out to the Weather Buoy,
and man...did the finder go dark with the bait fish! There must've
been a school running through, chasing them.
There is another place I have gone, and EVERY time I have caught
fish....but thats a secret.....and its close to Port.
A few weeks ago, we caught a 17.2 pound Chinook Salmon at around 7
pm...15 miles out, 14 miles to the east.


Secret fishing places.. Hurmph, bad fisherman?? I don't mind telling
folks my fishing spots, plenty of fish there for everyone. My problem
is getting folks to try it as it is so close to the launch. Most guys
think it ain't fishin' if you have not used 30 gallons of gas For 20
years I have been outfishing the guys who go "out". BTW, my spot is
just 200 yards south of the RR bridge at Chimney point in Old
Saybrook. Anchor on the west side of the river, just off the little
island and cast toward the channel
