Best Bass Waters

[Bassmaster-ND]

This is from Field and Stream

Connecticut
State record: 12 pounds 14 ounces, Frank Domurat, 1961, Mashapaugh Lake
Best water: Candlewood Lake. “Most likely its large size (which makes overfishing difficult) and its general productivity (it’s a very ‘fishy’ place) are the causes.”
—Bob Jacobs, Connecticut Bureau of Natural Resources Fisheries Division

Sleeper: Moodus Reservoir, East Haddam. “It’s difficult to find a sleeper lake in a small state, but this might be close. Moodus is a smaller lake (486 acres). It is shallow and weedy and difficult for less adept anglers to fish in the summer.”

Moodus has always been a great bass water. Fished both waters last year, will try again this year. Alot of tuorniments on candlewood so the next record may come out of Moodus.
