Hot Times in Sept.....Dusk and After Dark

In the last week or so, the hot period of time has been at and after dark. We have gotten a shot of cooler weather and that has gotten the fish active all over the state. If I had to pick the best month to catch carp at and after dark it would be September. It seems that that drop in temperature at and after dark seems to be a trigger that gets the carp feeding. As the water temperatures also drop, the fish begin to sense a need to feed in anticipation of winter coming.

I have been all over the state in the last week catching fish and all the places are producing (see photo of last night's fish caught at dusk). I've fished the Blackstone River, Scott's Pond, Ryco Pond, Lake Tiogue, Warwick Pd., Mashapaug, and Brickyard Pond and have taken fish out of all these places. I've also seen an upswing in activity in these spots with fish whirling and cruising around.
