I'll be at the D&R Canal in Ewing, not sure where, depending on how many people show up. Like last year I'll move around and see whats happening. I had more fun helping kids catch that catching myself last year and hope this years the same.

Just like New Years or St Patty's day, I consider opening weekend for Trout as amateur day so I stay clear. I leave all the meat fisherman alone for the weekend.

Well it looks like everyone has there plans set! That's awesome! Good luck to all!!! I personally love getting out and interacting with other anglers as well as having a good ole time with friends! Do I care about crowds? Nope! Is it amateur day? Nope, not at all! It's a start to a new season for most! A time where friends and family come together. I look forward to this day every year although I fish 365 days a year! It's a tradition! Keep tradition alive!

TIGHT LINEZ!!!

It's funny you say that. I usually grab my binoculars and watch the stocked brook from my window. It's usually a good show. Peek-a-boo, I see you
