Default Re: Passaic River Help!!!

I'm in Berkeley Heights. A spot that gets fished a lot is in Chatham off of river road. You can't miss it as there's a little park there and a bridge that goes over the river. There's a small water falls there that gets fished a lot, I've caught some nice Smallmouths there and that section gets stocked with Trout.

A few days ago I saw some HUGE Carp right under the falls. Above the falls and up into the New Providence and Berkeley Heights area I've only caught Carp but I talked to someone else who's been catching Pike up this far.

Also, in Berkeley Heighs where Snyder turns into Bridge Ave, there's access there and trails that go along the river, well the trail goes downstream. You can walk up stream but it's like a jungle and full of ticks, but there's a few good spots, but again I've only caught Carp in this area. But at the falls in Chatham the variety, for me, has been better.
