Re: Best New Jersey Trout Fishing Starts Now!
Maybe up north but down here in the Trenton area trout fishing is about done. They are in the D&R Canal we can see them, but the water is already to warm and they are not hitting anything. I'd love to know where they go once the water heats up. If they die you'd think you would see some floating but I never have. F&G biologist told me they will seek colder water but were? No way they are going to swim all the way from West Trenton Feeder Canal to the Raritan River. I was at the D&R Canal yesterday and talked with a few people that were fishing all day without one trout to show for it. I've been seeing a lot of that this year, and most say they are not going to bother buying a license next year. I did manage to get a fat 14" brookie and a barely 9" one in about an hour using a CD1 but it was hard fishing.
