Default Re: Hellgramites

I don't fish the Raritan river but I live 10 min from Delaware river and I fish it on a regular basis. Hellgramites need well oxygenated and unpolluted water to survive. You will not find them in slow moving streams or rivers. Not sure if Raritan is either of these. They make an incredible bait and if you know the right spots you can catch a bunch real quick. We destroy fish on Big D, small mouth among all other species can resist them. It's to the point i don't even like heading out unless I have a coffee can full...Im not sure about all of the Big D but we can't harvest hellgramites in part of Big D I fish so we catch them else were and bring them with. But the Delaware River is loaded with them.
