Years back I used to do a lot of fishing for BIG striped bass during the herring runs at the Enfield rapids on the Connecticut River. My favorite fishing buddy for this was a guy whose job was to travel all over the country from the US Lego headquarters,in Enfield, building those wicked huge displays at shows and stuff. What a gig!
A few years back I saw him in a documentary on Netflix... he's still with Lego as far as I know.
update: I just googled his name, he's Senior Project Manager with Lego
Great guy... we had lots of fun and caught lots of big stripers back at a time when we had that big stretch of river almost to ourselves.
