Default Re: Raritan river report

I'll post my report too.
At duke island fished for hardly 15 minutes and picked a smallie
Text it to Andy who I then see just across the river, coincidentally.
I head to Orlando park and pick up nothing on the way downstream. Until I hit a change in the river, a very slow pool on the side, like when you get a smaller channel that goes around the bank. Came up to it sloooowly and tossed a jig and had a lmb.
Some huuuuge carp cruising the shallows as always in the raritan.
Go down the slow section a bit more and pick up an ok smb.
I headed back upstream and catch two trout. Rock bass action below the rapids from the nevious bridge, and ended there. Would have been bonkers if I got my third, never got three in one day.

Next time im either spending more time at the bridge section or going down further cause it was looking pretty sweet + fishable.

Tycomps, remember to shoot me a text if you want company fishing.

Also all caught on 1/16th oz jigs with various curly tail grubs.
