Re: Wanaque reservoir
Wanaque was open to shore line fishing by permit only. This was many moons ago..I was able to obtain numerous passes back in the early 1960's. Have to say never so so many LMb over 5 pounds in any NJ water shed..However never landed one either, did catch many 2 to 4 pounders thou.All released.The surprise fish I caught there were the numerous trout-- Rainbows, browns and brookies. No giants but many from 17 to 20 inches..My PB brookie 18 inches was caught there. I have so say with the fishing pressure either non existent or still by very high connections,,This place may have several state records swimming there. When I drive past i always look for that blast out over deep water more than likely a big brown chasing herring to the surface..Still makes my blood boil.
