If we all end up there about the same time... Would be interested in fishing the Lower Mystic. It has the smallies plus it kicked my butt last week with Shawn.
I may hit up Lower Mystic on Friday but later in the afternoon. FWIW the water there is the lowest I've ever seen it, easily 1-2 feet down by my estimate. That being said I saw two fisherman this past weekend pull fish out of there on what looked like spinner-baits with willow blades
good luck on the water i will be working a double on black Friday catch one for me and stay away from the BPS it will be mobbed and they always run out of what you need but the next day have it again
