The Connecticut River has dropped since the weekend, but remains on the high side. Black Crappie action was good last week in Wethersfield Cove. Anglers will find action in the river’s coves while using small shiners. Northern Pike fishing was reported as good last week. The best fishing can be found in the coves. The upper river recently yielded a 29-pound-plus Carp. Channel Catfish are still providing anglers with some good action. Try the Hartford/Wethersfield area and the Middletown/Portland area. Good reports also from the Chester area. Largemouth Bass are providing some nice action in the coves just below Hartford.
