Gordon Gruetzmacher of Noank casts a fly into the Shetucket River in the Baltic section of Sprague on Thursday in hopes of landing some Atlantic salmon. Gruetzmacher, who enjoys the solitude of fishing, rarely tries his luck in this stretch of the river due to its popularity with other anglers, but on Thursday it was nearly empty.
