From what I have read it is not brackish, it’s fresh water and up to 60’ deep (that’s how deep the original clay pit was). It looks like in 1998 an environmental assessment and “fisheries study” was completed for Mehrhof Pond commissioned by the Bergen county utilities authority and conducted by Princeton Hydro. I am sure that report would have all the answers I am looking for but I haven’t been able to find a copy anywhere online. I emailed the BCUA and requested a copy. Hopefully it will report an abundance of gamefish and not a hopelessly polluted cesspool devoid of life....
