How far upstream on the Raritan has anyone caught a striped bass? What is the next obstacle that prevents farther upstream travel for them? Please don't spot burn your favorite spots. I'm just wondering how the dam removals have worked out.

Well look at fast Eddie's posts the last two Sundays. I'm not sure if they go farther. It's obvious that they don't go up to the north/south branch junction. I'd imagine the small ones that can get around do.

I've caught stripers all the way to the Duke falls, that would be as far as they can go...The Roberts falls used to be there limit but now that's gone so they travel a few more miles.

I've caught small ones all the way up like Shucker said. The big stripers have no interest in passing through the washing machine fish ladder with 11 inch slots.
