. . . of the day off and relatively nice weather (sunny, blue skies, 47 degrees), so, after doing some Christmas shopping, I headed south for an hour or so of fishing.
I started on the West Housatonic in Pittsfield, where I caught a decent 13" rainbow under the Clapp Park trestle.
Then I hopped on Route 9 and drove east to Dalton, where I fished the East Housatonic below the Housatonic Street bridge and landed a nice hefty 15" brown.
