Regarding East End Guys, I've been up once in the past couple years (had some medical issues) and that was to the west end, I posted what we did. But aside from that, I am a member of a message board here in CT "ctfisherman.com" and have noticed the same thing on their site. Where there used to be a plethora of reports every week, Now there may be one or two. For example, in "River Reports" the last thing posted was August 17, and that was me. There have been six reports in "Salt Water Reports" in the past two weeks (salt is a big thing down here, especially this time of year). And most reports are from the same handful of old farts who refuse to move on (I'm one of them). Forums like this used to provide a wealth of information, but folks have gotten away from them. Now I imagine it's all Facebook and their own personal sites. I watch Mexico Bay reports kind of closely and have also noted a significant drop in reports over the past few years. C'est la vie.

Let us know how you do in Wilson, I fished there once (late last June) with "SalmonBoy", Three of us were limited out by 8:30. The captain (forgot his name) told us that he chartered in both Mexico Bay and Wilson, and there is a world of diffence between the two; Wilson being far superior.

Second hand info, My buddy picked up a couple 10 pound browns out of Oswego on Tuesday. He also noted that the weather was snotty, they had to get off the water early. It seems that fish are there, just not easily caught. I have no info on lures or depths, but when I saw the picture he sent I had to ask how much the fish weigher, they were obviously large fish.

Does anybody run teasers between their diver and whatever is behind the diver; flasher or whatever? I thought I've seen this in the past, but can't find a reference to it. The way I see it, the leader off the Dipsy would actually be made up of three seperate leaders, Each incorporating a squid (or tube fly), a bead and a swivel. Or something. Thoughts?
