hey y'all

anyone hit the nezinscot river in turner recently? i fished it a good amount when i was in college in lewiston, but haven't really since. i got the itch, as i imagine you all do, might just have to go and throw some line. although with this rain, i'm sure it'll be high...

anyone have any thoughts?

Jesse,

Never fished it in winter...have fished the area around Buckfield once in June...lots of little browns (10inchers) rising to caddis in that section.
I was amazed by the amount of caddis for such a small piece of water...Sure you could pick some fish up on some caddis larva and other nymphs...I've heard there are winter fish to be had...

Or...You could go for broke and drive upto the EO as it's open year round now...

try woolie buggers, black, olive dk. brown small, # 6, 8, along with bead head caddis larvae. Start at the dam and go down. good luck.
