IF YOU LIKE TROUT AND DON'T WANT TO DRIVE FOR FIVE HOURS THEN YOU MIGHT
WANT TO TRY THESE TWO SOUTHERN N.H. RIVERS. I FISHED BOTH OF THESE THIS
PAST WEEKEND AND PULLED IN 12 NICE FISH. THE SOUCOOK ON SATURDAY MORNING 
PRODUCED MY LIMIT IN AN HOUR. THEY WERE ALL SMALL RAINBOW BETWEEN 8 AND 
11 INCHES. THE CUNTOOKUK BROOKIES WERE A LITTLE SLOWER COMMING BUT WERE A
LITTLE BIGGER 10 TO 14 INCHES. ALL THESE WERE CAUGHT ON MEPPS AND ROOSTER 
TAILS. A WORD OF CAUTION THERE IS A STRETCH OF THE CUNTOOKUK IN HENNIKER
THAT IS RESTRICTED TO FLY OR SINGLE HOOK LURES. BOTH RIVERS I FISHED FROM
SHORE.

| The Soucook River runs along Rt. 106 up thru Louden. Take Rt. 3 & 28 north thru Hooksett, Allenstown and Pembroke. Rt 106 branches off Rt 3 just south of Concord. The river crosses 106 several times, so anywhere it crosses is a place to start. I usually start at the second bridge on 106. There's a big deep pool there and I pulled a 17" brown out two weeks ago on worms. Good luck. Joe | |||||
| 11.5 | 1988 UPDATE(?) | NQOAIC::BEAUCHESNE | Thu Apr 21 1988 13:39 | 10 | |
|     	Just so no one thinks that the Contoocook has dried up over
    the past year, I was there this past weekend and managed to pull
    a 15" Rainbow out.  It was in a bend just above the Fly/Single Hook
    only section.  Got it on an ultralight with a Mepps Aglia Long (silver
    #1) towards dusk.  Went back the next day, late afternoon and got
    skunked, but I'll be back again.
    
    	Anyone else have any luck THIS year?

| 11.6 | LEGAL LIMIT | SALEM::PAINE | Mon Jan 22 1990 11:36 | 5 | |
|     There is severe penalty's for going over the legal limit in NH
    for your edification it's seven (7) fish or 5 pounds whichever
    occurs first !!
    A GOOD SPORTSMAN/ANGLER WOULD PLAY IT BY THE RULES !!
