LOL - yeah, any bass living that close to that section of Route 22 is definitely living a precarious existence.
I have to hand it to the N.J. Division of Fish and Wildlife. They are stocking bass in an urban area where a lot of non-avid anglers fish from shore. If NJ is going to continue growing its base of outdoorsman and fishermen, this is what is going to do it. If all the kids can catch are stunted sunfish, they probably won't continue to fish into adulthood and buy licenses, trout stamps, tackle, bait, etc.
50/15= 0.3 x 16 oz. = 4.8 ounces each.
The stocking of pike in the Passiac was an excellent idea, also.
A lot of other stocking efforts don't reach the urban youths and people new to fishing. Trout season is chaotic and probably too competitive for anybody who doesn't know what they're doing. Hybrid stripers are usually not caught for shore, so the people persuing those are generally avid anglers who own boats.
