Shut Up And Fish.

I know its been a while since my last post, But like I said my Blog Is Not all about Fishing, This was a Surprise Blue Channel catfish, I caught  in Turner Reservoir, Rumford, R.I. They are not Native to this little lake, So they had to come from upstream in Massachusetts Ten Mile River system, I've also caught smaller ones just up the road above the small dam system at Pawtucket Country Club, And I've also caught them South of Turner Reservoirs, Large  dam, I'm just curious to find out, who and how they got Introduced, But We aren't Complaining, So far the largest one I've seen was almost 6 lbs. I really can't wait to see just how big these cats are going to get in size, But any how I found another Video  So I'll leave it at this... SHUT UP AND FISH... ;)

I was reading this morning on googles local news reports for where I live, And to my Surprise there is a article on the Restocking of Trout in the Ten Mile River basin, There use to be trout there a long time ago before my time growing up and fishing there, But in the past 5 years the State of Rhode Island has been Installing Fish ladders on the Ten Mile to help bring back the herring population, The First ladder is located at the southern end of James V Turner Reservoir, That is a very tall water fall system, And the second fish ladder is located a the Hunt House River basin, That Is The Cover Shot Photo on My Blog, http://readthewaterblogs.blogspot.com/  And the third is located further down stream at Omega Pond, That is also a very tall water fall fish ladder that flows into the Seekonk River that is part of Narragansett Bay.http://patch.com/rhode-island/eastprovidence/trout-stocking-program-expands-east-providence

I guess the state is going to have to update the Fish Species sign and add Trout and Channel Catfish to the list Because Channel Cats  have should up some how, ever since they started the fish ladder project. And we love fishing for them also catch and release, It is Great to have and Be Part of such a State that Really cares about its water sheds. rivers and Bay Estuaries, Rhode Island (Rocks)..
