Reply to comment by Fadingmist-1554 in Is it safe/legal to swim across the Connecticut River? by RedditMaster679

A number of different spots to be honest. I’ve used all the DEP launches on the river. Salmon River is probably the one I use most often.

Thank you. I use Great Island in Old Lyme a lot and I’d like to branch out. As for safety, always use a paddle leash. Too many drownings happen when people think they can reach the paddle floating away

I wear my life vest year round but that’s also good advice. I’m always out fishing so my paddle starts floating away I’m probably casting at it till I get it snagged lol.
