Aeroflex / Wawayanda - stocked with landlocked salmon
This week Hackettstown hatchery with a fish trade with the Division of Wildlife and Game in Mass did a fish exchange where NJ has produced stocking landlock salmon in two lakes in NJ.

Anyone know if there's boat access there?

There isn't and you have to walk nearly a 1/2 mile to get to it. |

Where the heck is Tilcon Lake? I heard Allamuchy SP but can't seem to find it on the map. I'd love to carry the canoe into there and give the salmon a shot.

Got it, Google maps shows it as a bunch of small lakes but if you look at Earth you see it's a single larger lake.

Well, that place was nice while it lasted. :rolleyes:
Now it'll never have the trophies again that once inhabited it. |

Relax. It's already published on the DEP website.

I've heard that lake was amazing back before it was open to the public and people would have to sneak in. But the lake quickly went downhill after the public gained access to it. Now with the stocking and extra publicity, it's going to be a circus. http://www.smiley-lol.com/smiley/hum...vil2_clown.gif I've never actually been there, but looking on Google Earth, there appears to be a parking lot close to the water's edge. The state wouldn't stock a lake if it had very limited access. In my opinion, I'm not sure if growing-out big salmon is the best use of a hatchery's resources. I assume they'll be caught once and kept like every other salmonid the state stocks. . |

It was nice that bass anglers actually had what was once considered a trophy bass lake. But once again, that has to be taken away from us and the bass anglers get it rammed in their asses once again, all for stupid ****ing salmon.

Re: Aeroflex / Wawayanda - stocked with landlocked salmon
aeroflex is a tuff lake for trout/salmon after its stocked, its 100ft deep in the middle and they spread out. electric only so it keeps alot of people from trolling it w DR and such, so those salmon are somewhat safe. I used to fish it a little years ago and the local club did a great job on the trout, thats gone and so are the nice browns and rainbows that used to be in there. People just cant release these fish to establish a trophy program, and the place is FULL of herring that can feed plenty of trophies

Re: Aeroflex / Wawayanda - stocked with landlocked salmon
I live close to aeroflex.. happened to stumble across it last year actually, that's when I noticed the landlocked salmon signs. From the info I gathered on the lake, it's very very hard to fish from shore.
