Default Re: Weekend Trout and Salmon

Justin / Chris nice job with the land locks. Beautiful fish! Justin congrats on first one through the ice. I just wish they would raise the minimum size to 18", 12" is way too small considering the few that are stocked. This shouldn't be viewed like trout as a put and take fishery. Might get some flack for saying that but this could become a real trophy fishery in NJ if we provide a bit more protection to the few that are currently being stocked in four impoundments. Prospects of catching 6 - 8 lb salmon in my opinion outweighs keeping them at 12 or 13 inches. These fish will holdover and prosper in the lakes year round, unlike trout which won't survive the summer months in many of the skinny waters they're stocked.
