Greetings from Mozambique? Anyone fishing for trout in NJ? Is fall stocking happening? Has anyone seen any spawning activity?
The last time I fished for trout was over the summer when I went skiing on Mount Hood-its one of the few places you can ski in the summer-it was great, but this year they only made it to July 18 as the glacier/snowfield receded more than expected. I skied in the morning and fished in the afternoon. Suprisingly, the rivers around Mount Hood are not very fertile as they are fed by ice cold snow melt-I got lots of small rainbows/steelhead smolt. When salmon/steelhead are running, it can be more fun with much larger fish. I also fished a lake one day and had much more luck with a few 18-20 inch holdover/wild rainbows a several smaller kokanee salmon. It was my first trip to Oregon and I will definitely be back-I met lots of friendly people on the mountain and on the water and the landscapes were breathtaking with snow covered mountains and massive old growth forests.
Anyone fishing???

Fall stocking starts 10/13 for 2 weeks. Leaves are coming down fast, early this year

Re: Anyone fishing???
I'm in PA on a dam removal project on McMichael Creek near Saylorburg, so no time for hunting or fishing this Fall. I will sneak out at some point for both, but right now it's all hands on deck until 10/15 when we must end work in the stream and make sure we have clean water flowing around the site.
