Red Cattey

Red Cattey in Litchfield passed along more information regarding launching boats at East Twin Lake. Daily launch fee at the old O’Hara’s site is $20. A season’s pass costs $250 which is an increase of $100 over previous years. Smaller boats and other watercraft can be launched for free at the state-owned property located near O’Hara’s. The boulders that had been blocking the launch site there have been removed. Red also heard from a gentleman who docks his boat at Wononskopomuc (Lakeville) Lake. He has been catching and releasing lots of brown trout in the 16- to 21-inch range.

Red Cattey in Litchfield could not reach Frank Barata but did get a report from Frank’s wife who said her husband and Billy Bones were already at Mount Tom Pond April 15 when a DEEP stocking crew arrived and dumped in a load of stockies. Frank and Billy had a ball catching and releasing one trout after another. Red also heard from Skip Zander and Dave Dodge that launching a boat at East Twin Lake now costs twenty dollars.
