I've had incredibly bad luck in the north branch this fall
I've put maybe 6-8 hours of fishing in since it was stocked, mostly in North Branch Park, the spot around the bridge by Newtown School, and at the Fair Hills Fairgrounds. I've been skunked every time, although I did have a fish on in the current below the spillway above the 202 bridge, but I lost him.
I guess that's why I got frustrated and started wandering up strange streams :P
That being said, I was tearing up the north branch for smallies in the month leading up to the trout stocking! I think the cold water and infusion of big trout probably has the fish all shuffling around and hiding.
