Thumbs up Raritan 3/16 no shad...but:

Hit the Raritan below the falls for a few hours this evening, water looked great. Throwing my big 1/4 oz. chartruse dart I worked over the area pretty good and only came up with an 18" brook trout, no shad. I still think it's a little early, last year I didn't get them there until April. It was fun watching all the BIG suckers trying to swim up the falls. Sorry for the bad photo, I was banging it on my knee when it went off, yes, time for a new camera, maybe Go-pro video.
Wilson is out by the Susky already, gotta get up early and meet Snack and Wilson so we can hit it for smallies and walleye.

Generic photo of the falls, and yes, trout eat shad darts.

Only an 18in brookie? Thats a pretty good afternoon for me even if it wasn't the intended species.
