Not what most think

I've caught lots of trout there, rainbows and browns for the most part. I've seen brook trout in there as well. People seem to get the idea that it's very polluted but CT has cleaned it up a lot obviously still kinda polluted but not bad at all definitely has come a long way.

I’m not sure why people think there’s no fish here. Is the bite off the chain? No, but is anywhere in CT? Also no. This place is beautiful, plenty of spots to bank fish, and the bite is good enough to keep it interesting. I’m yet to find anywhere else around here that I enjoy this much.
