Garden State Trout

Who can recommend a doctor or facility near Califon area? Seriously. I got my scrip to get the procedure, but have not pulled the trigger. Fun BS fact - my insurance will pay for it, if I'm 50. I'm not, and so I'll pay for this one. I got the message from Jim, too. My wife and I use places far to t...

I am 45 and had a physical a few weeks ago. Just based on age, my doctor recommended a colonoscopy. She said while it may not be super pleasant, being dead is also not pleasant for my family. Apparently colon cancer is very treatable if caught early but if left untreated it becomes very deadly. In ...

So I woke up this past Saturday about one month post surgery with a whole lot of pain in my kidney area. Tried to convince myself that it was gas and this too shall pass, but by midday the pain was all I could focus on and my wife said I was gray in color. So she called my Dr. and spoke with the se...

Unrelated to my last post. I didnt get around to exploring more of those two creeks yet. https://i.postimg.cc/QB2jvS55/image.png https://i.postimg.cc/6ybqYrHV/image.png Assuming this is wild because this is one of the State's Wild Brown Trout Enhancement streams, + I never happen to find any rainbo...

I'll be 77 in 9 days :shock: but who's counting. Several treatments were discussed including removal and seeding, with my urologist and with the group at Sloan. Given the small size and location, the reason the first biopsies were negative, all agreed radiation was the correct way to go although th...

Was diagnosed in 2019. PSA had creeped up to 10.7 and after 2 biopsies came back negative my urologist wanted to do a third, I said no way. He finally convince me for an MRI guided biopsy and found a small tumor hiding in a difficult spot. Discussed options and went to Sloan-Kettering for second op...

Many insurers are now covering colonoscopies for men and women as young as 45. When I was younger, it was 55. Most are now at 50, but headed to 45 as colon cancer is on the increase as well as prostate cancer.

I'm putting this here simply because this is the most active forum on this site. This is directed at our 40+ members, but good info for the "yoots" as well! Make sure you see a Doctor for an annual physical. Don't ever wait until you know there's some sort of major issue going on, we buried Jim Holl...

Is there some possilbe TU work here?

Maybe, I'm not sure who is doing the plantings. But there wouldn't be anything else. It's in the North Jersey chapter's territory.

thanks, yea im not sure if they cared too much about rehabilitation with this one, more so just wanted the dam down before it came down itself by accident? The town that owns it did some major rehabilitation some years back and realize they were going to need constant engineering and repairs and wo...

I've been highly critical of this dam removal for the simple reason that the stated goal for the team was to provide fish passage for anadromous fish. So why zero fish habitat restoration and only dam removal and bank sloping? Too many bad engineers with no background in fisheries or fish habitat. ...

Not I but I've made a conscience effort not to fish any streams with wild reproduction the last 2 weeks. I'll f with the stockers and give the wild ones time to do their deeds for the rest of the month. I'm in the minority and still wish they had closed seasons on streams with repo. I don't disagre...

Our brookies and browns at the very least should be cutting a rug by now. I am looking at possible impairments of a tributary in the northwest part of the state on Sunday and will be looking for any brook trout redds. What are others seeing if out?

I go through that area a couple times a week on my way to Pennsy for work. I never really considered fishing it, is it more smallmouth/warmwater fishing?

Purely speculation on my part, but they likely state stock it with trout and it would be too warm in summer for them to survive.

I was asked to keep quiet about the preservation effort until the ink dried. Yes, the dam is being removed at some point. I do know my firm will be bidding on the work. Funding should be in place or nearly so.

No, not legal and the first thing you do is call the game thief hotline. That number is 855-648-8477.

I used to use weather1 app, but a guy retired and the reports are not as, is at all accurate anymore, not I use WeatherBug, simple and effective. I go to USGS for flows... The River Data app pulls all of its data from USGS gauges, but you can list favorites and it has each state listed and in each ...

I use River Data for my IPhone and I use several weather apps because I find so many times, one or more is wrong. When in doubt, I go to My Radar which is my # 1 weather app.
