Re: Musky
I am pretty sure the last state stocking of brookies was about 15 years ago after Pequest was infected with disease.

Re: Van Campens restoration project.
Totally agree. DWGNRA is a BIG place from Milford to the Gap on both sides of the river. Not enough LE for the area, but even if there were, with the anti-LE environment nowadays, and it being a fed facility, I have my doubts of any enforcement.

Re: Net Rig
I stopped using a net many years ago and crimped down the barb. Now use barbless. The net was something that always caught more branches than fish.

Re: It was WORK & was worth it
I will always have a fond memory of one day on the Lamar River in YNP, just above Lamar Canyon in early Sept. I was wet wading, air temps in the high 70's, and upstream about a mile from fishermens pullout, doing well with hoppers. I hear a 'what are they taking', look up and there is a guy standing...

Re: Central Jersey Recommendations
I have to try saltwater on the fly, would a 5 wt rod work? There’s some cool marshy back waters in my town I wonder if I should give them a try. Get an 8wt. High Bar Harbor is a great place to start; easily fish the inlet side and the bay side. This club provides some very good info, worth joining ...
