Anybody from central Jersey?

I grew up in South Brunswick and recently moved back to the area (now in Hamilton/Robbinsville) after living in the midwest for 9 years. I'm getting reacquainted with Mercer Lake and the Assunpink collection and am encountering the same skunkings now as when I was a teenager in the '90s. Anybody have much luck on these high pressure lakes? I've heard rumors of muskies in Mercer Lake.

BTW, I'm always willing to drive north if anybody wants to fish, I'm currently using an old 14' vee... I hit Clinton Res twice last summer and I used to frequent Budd Lake, both with some success.
The musky in mercer are not a rumor. The state stocks them there every year. They just aren't caught very often. As far as assunpink goes, the main lake is..... Ok. I always catch when I'm there and have seen some huge fish, just have to know where to look. I actually prefer rising sun and stone tavern more.
