[url "javascript: addTag('cool')"][cool][/url][blue][size 1]Hey, Pitman, welcome to our little forum. I have spent time in your part of the country, having worked for a company based in New Haven Connecticut. I can assure you that if you do some driving and some homework you will have no difficulty finding water in which to launch your new craft.[/size][/blue]

[#0000ff][size 1]As you have discovered, many of the reservoirs have restrictions on swimming and float tubing, when they are used for municipal water supply. However, there are plenty of natural lakes and farm ponds that are ideal for tubing.[/size][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][size 1][/size][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][size 1]You might also consider launching in some of the protected areas of Long Island Sound. Good stripers and bluefish at times, with lots of flounder and other inshore bay species. Ideal for light tackle.[/size][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][size 1][/size][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][size 1]I got your PM and I will be sending you some introductory writing for you to soak up. Hope we can help you get well "launched". We would like to hear from you from time to time, even though you will probably be spending a lot of time with the more local boards.[/size][/#0000ff]
