Ninigret Pond

[glennjan]

Hi All

I was wondering if anyone has any info on fishing there besides when there is a worm hatch? I live in CT and was thinking it would be a good place to use a kayak or a canoe. Is it way too early for fish in there? I usually dont start fishing the beaches till may but I am starting to go stir crazy. Holdovers?

Thanks

1st post in a year and you spotburn and want specifics???

I am fairly certain that Ninigret is in RI This is in the MA section. Anyhow there are no fish in RI not now not never. If you want holdovers try the powerplant outflows.

Your right I posted in the wrong forum. I wasnt aware that saying the name of a place was spot burning...If I said east beach or weekapaug would that be spot burning? Just askin what fish are there not where to go in it.

Ask again in your next post...which should be in about a year

yes that is spot burning. swhen you say the name of a place and someone says there are fish there then swarms of noobs are going to flock there to try and catch the fish that are said to be there. when asking bout a spot be more general such as a "are the fish near jetties in r.i?" or something like that. neverr ever name an actual spot

Glen-
To loosely answer your question,,,
Basicly things generally start around the full moon of May in these parts.
Squid / Blackbacks first. They're not showing yet.
I do think there is a chance of things being earlier this year because of the rains warming things up in the ponds, rivers and bays. But that could just be wishful thinking too.
My boats are uncovered and will be ready to go in a couple of days. (hint)

Ignore these bozos, Ninigret is a good size pond and I didn't see you ask for specific spots in the pond. If you want schoolies now go a little further east. You can find them around the harbor of refuge, which is the entrance to the Great Salt Pond, right now.

I find it funny that people talk about spot burning in regards to spots that are mentioned in publications that go out to hundreds of thousands of fishermen. That pond is known for its worm hatch, OWT talks about it every year....bring a senko during a hatch and see what happens!!!!

LXpaul swarms of "googans" have been visiting that spot since googans existed.
