Fall Stripers

Best Fall Striper fishing in years going on right now. As usual you have to be in the right place at the right time but it has been amazing so far.

Re: Well the time has come

I will be 86 in a few days and only found a need for a wading staff when I reached 80. Feel very fortunate to still be here and able to continue fishing and playing golf and running a small gardening business.

Re: Pennsylvannia opener

If anyone wants to know anything and everything about Pa streams and trout fishing get a copy of Trout Streams of Pennsylvania by Dwight Landis. It describes all Pa streams complete with maps, directions and parking areas etc.

Re: Pennsylvannia opener

The Lehigh River is comparable in size to the West Branch and is up and coming in terms of improved fishing for both trout and smallmouths. The Little Lehigh has declined dramatically in the past 2 decades to the point that many from NJ no longer bother. Opening day on the Little Lehigh is something...

There are a couple of ponds if that interests you. Holmdel Park, Spring Lake and Mohawk in Red BAnk. Wouldnt reco...

Re: Central Jersey Recommendations

The Hockhockson is a small and very shallow Brook and parking is very limited. It is worth trying but don’t get your hopes up. There are a few ponds around such as Mohawk in Red Bank and the one in Holmdel Park that have been stocked.
