Chris Grenon Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone out there I've come to know through River and Riptide Anglers and to all those I've met while fishing. It's been a great year and I've learned much from all of you. Thanks for the all the advice and new areas to fish. I've caught more this year than all before now, comb...ined. One day I may be able to catch up with Joey. I don't know though, he keeps that horseshoe hidden pretty well! Thanks Dave for the answers to all those questions and for Monday night tying, I look forward to it every week.

It isn't a horseshoe, but three tips.... First tip, take multiple pics at different angles and with different backgrounds. Second tip, hire a scuba diver to put fish on hook for you. Third tip, the hatchery has alot of nice fish that aren't to picky just make sure to go on off hours.

River & Riptide Anglers Wow Monday night tying has been a hoot, new tactics, new flies, good stories, etc. Cant wait to fish again, maybe this weekend on the Thames before I have to pay 100 bucks to fish CT once again. Thanks to the Gov of Ct for sticking it to the taxpayers. Boy thats going to hurt local bus. Anyway happy holidays from River & Riptide Anglers.

Joseph Wow!, can't believe the great fishing in mid December. Thames River and the abundance of stripers, Wood River has still been produceing some very nice fish. Any thoughts of putting away the gear for the year should be reconsidered. Fresh water or salt, it doesn't matter, the fishing and catching goes on.

River & Riptide Anglers Been a crazy week with some recent rain & now snow. The good thing is there are plenty of Trout in our little Wood River to get us through the winter months. For those with CT licenses the Thames River in Norwich has seen some pretty good size Stripers which hold over well through the winter. I love New England...

It's too bad the great state of CT saw fit to hike those licences for out-of-staters to $80.00 for 2010.

Jeff Morrison At the same time you all were in NY, I was in Northern California (Trinity River in Lewiston and Lower Sacramento River in Redding). Netted (3) 25" - 6lbs Steelies! I highly recommend it!

A gigantic landslide that buried a highway, uprooted homes and rerouted a river in Washington state's Cascade Range left hundreds of smaller victims: fish.
Chris Grenon

Chris Grenon Hey Dave, thanks for getting Joe and I involved with this trip. Just figure the answer is yes for next year and any year thereafter. The fishing was more fun than I could have imagined. Amazing place!!! Great trip!!! Ton of fun!!!
