The Thames River is a short river and tidal estuary in the U.S. state of Connecticut. It flows south for 15 mi. (25 km.) through eastern Connecticut from the junction of the Yantic and Shetucket Rivers at Norwich, to New London and Groton, which flank its mouth at the Long Island Sound. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thames River (Connecticut)
I had a sonversation with one of the employees at the Fish Connection in Preston. He says he has hooked, but not been able to land, several pike below the Greenville Dam. I've read that pike can handle some 'brackishness' so it would not be too surprising to me that pike have been caught in the Thames. Since it is a tidal river the closer you get to the Shetucket and Yantic Rivers the less brackish and more fresh it is.

The ranking score is used to determine how "popular" a trip or location is. It is calculated based off of a weighted average of the number of reviews and the user ratings. For example, a location with 2 reviews and an average rating of 5 will have a lower "ranking score" than one with 10 reviews and an average rating of 4. This is because even though the first location has a better average rating, it has not been reviewed as much as the second location, so it is not as "popular". In the future we may modify the ranking score to take in additional factors, such as the number of views, comments, and photos.
