Brown Trout
While Groton Long Point is primarily known for saltwater fishing, dedicated anglers can find some brown trout action within a reasonable drive. The Shetucket River, a bit further inland, is a popular destination for trout fishing and is stocked regularly. While not directly in Groton Long Point, it's a worthwhile trip for trout enthusiasts. Spring and fall are the peak seasons, coinciding with stocking and cooler water temperatures. Fly fishing and spin fishing are both effective. Look for deeper pools, riffles, and undercut banks. Small spinners, spoons, and live bait like worms or mealworms can all produce results. Remember to check the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) website for stocking schedules and regulations, as well as any specific access restrictions. A valid Connecticut fishing license is required. Local tip: The Shetucket can be a bit crowded during peak season, so try exploring some of the smaller tributaries for a more secluded experience.
