The opener on Bridgeport produced pretty good numbers of fish for most of the anglers out there. It sounds like the trolling was the best with anglers reporting fish being caught on needlefish, Rapalas, Thomas Bouyants, nightcrawlers, Tazmanian Devils etc. There were lots of browns caught with the largest one we saw weighing in at 6.5 pounds. There were also lots of rainbows caught ranging in size from 1 to 5+ pounds. There were also some pretty good perch caught yesterday as well, some up to 2 pounds. The shore anglers reported getting into some good fish down near the dam casting lures and some on bait. The bait anglers did the best with mice tails, power bait and inflated night crawlers.
