Re: Fishing impacts vs climatic impacts...
totally agree, I think the biologist of NJ F&W already know this but still make these regulations to anglers for other purposes. Opinion : Those regulations are in place to make anglers feel like their fishing in a "respected" stream. It's sort of an attraction, rather than think of a regulated stre...

Re: WTS 1/30
One of the old members of this board, Bill H, used to buy the crappiest equipment he could find. He wanted none of the advantages new or cutting-edge equipment could offer an angler; if he caught trout (and he usually did), it was all him. Is there a big difference between cutting edge vs crap? I f...

Re: WTS 1/30
Its actually just a gold color plug. It was a pictured I had loaded up on Imgur with that censored for respect for a angler that had introduced that to me & didnt want his lure blown up on the internet on another site. No secrets here since most here fly fish. As you can see. I use single barbless ...

Re: WTS 1/30
ah yes, luckily I stay clear of the carcinogen-blade and use lead jigs and toxic-plastic lures.

Re: WTS 1/30
nice brown, i exclusively spin fish nowadays, but ive seen some big browns come off of tiny nymphs also big streamers are infamous for big trout. Same goes for many fish species. I wonder what lure you were using in the pic, no fun when you censor it :mrgreen: Im guessing a plug or a spinner due to ...

Re: WTS 1/30
No not there. Most I have seen in Warren/Hunterdon streams. Tribs to larger rivers like Delaware, SBRR, Paulinskill and Musky as well as tribs to our reservoirs. For one species to vanish and and #'s of species like chubs, shiners and panfish to stay about the same suggests disease, an excessive th...

Re: Tiger Trout
I've caught several stocked tigers, but still no wild tigers in my 47 years fly fishing. Nice fish, LU. Im empty in both scenarios. Hope if i hit more brookie-like water in a brown trout stream i can find a wild one. From my understanding theyll be around where brookies are dominate in a stretch wh...

Re: da brookies and da browns
I haven't fished there in a few years and tended to stay above the county road. Is the dam area newly posted? Who physically owns the dam? Is there any thought of reinforcing it so that browns don't make it upstream and take over the brookies? I don't know of any other stream in township that have ...

Re: da brookies and da browns
FYI: That area around the dam is posted land. The owners are up on the hill to the right of the dam facing north. I got politely chased out years ago after landing several wild browns up to 15" below the spillway. Public land ends at where the stream begins to flow into the meadow. See the attachme...

Re: Little Black Stoneflies
I've found that as long as the sub-surface or surface fly is black and size 18 to 16 the trout will happily take it. Simple black soft hackle or elk hair caddis does the trick. True the trout go nuts over this crappy lil black jig i make with a tiny 1/80th oz jig. Dont need much material on it. I t...

Re: da brookies and da browns
I know that area well-its less than two miles from my parents house. I haven't fished it in a few years and was wondering how the brookies were doing. By the looks of that one, they are doing just fine! I have caught a handful of brookies below that dam, but the vast majority brownies and I have ne...

da brookies and da browns
Hit this lamington river tributary today. I didnt find a cent of information on it anywhere online. I just figured by maps it looked trouty. There was this old dam that seemed to have formed a pond back in the day, but now dried up since the dam was half its height. It had some browns below it. Furt...

Re: Any Flint Hill Club members here?
I love how downstream is that cliff where the water digs into it like a cave. Not that ive fished it since its the private section. But i can only imagine id catch a nice 17 inch rainbow from it if i did fish it back when i checked the public area out.

Re: Natirar smallmouth fishing
I go there sometimes. Ive seen trout in there just last month, probably not worth the effort to target them with the nice smb population to target instead. TOo bad the ravine lake dam spillway is private property too. I bet there's some nice fish there. I like to fish the other parts of the upper n...
