Fenwick Fishing Report

Fenwick Summer

I am creating this "trip" for the sake of mapping a few fishing spots from dozens of small trips I did throughout the summer around the Borough of Fenwick and Old Saybrook. Main locales include South Cove, Connecticut River, and Fenwick Pier. Species caught include Striped bass, Bluefish, Weakfish, and Northern searobin. All fish were caught casting with artificial lures.
