The MAJORITY of these fish will not start feeding until the 1st or 2nd week of November. These large fish have stored body fat and do not need to eat right away. Go out in November, all the guys are hunting, the leaves and fishermen are gone and you will have all the big fat hungry trout to yourself.

i was waiting for this because you post it every year, but i wonder why... in my experience (and the pics that get posted each fall by other NJF posters agree) it's just not at all what happens in reality. yes there will be annoying leaves in the water, but the fish are not sitting around with lockjaw. they have no problem getting themselves caught, even the day they go in. there is no reason to skip october.
