Default Re: South Branch stream restoration:

Yeah I kind hate when we think we can improve things. I saw a Fairfield Township Excavator parked along the Passaic today. It had been very busy ripping out fallen trees from the river - the same trees which offer up the rivers gamefish(bass, channel cats & pike) the best cover. WTF? Now they'll tell you its to help ease the flood problems the township has had but someone needs to tell them that when you get 14" of rain in 6 days(like last year), your going to have major flooding trees or no trees.

As for the SBRR I kind of agree that mother nature will do the best job. That section is also club water(they even have cameras) so I wonder why fix that up if u can't even fish there? Better off addressing other areas of the SBRR which are open to the public.

And please get rid of that Califon dam. Water quality would be so much better w/o it.
