I have had my best few outings in the past week all in a public Union County pond. It was not among those you mentioned. In same period I have probably fished nomahegan 7-8 times and not even had a bite. Same goes for Passaic River and Rahway River all over Cranford and Kenilworth. This time last year nomahegan was on fire for me and so was the Rahway. Union County spots seem to either be really hot or just totally dead. I never just catch one fish it's either I get skunked or I am catching or at least gettin bites every few casts. If I don't get a bite within first 10 minutes at my local spots I can be fairly sure I won't catch anything no matter how long I fish. Even though I know this I still will waste three hours catching the skunk I knew was coming ten minutes in. Go figure.
