I also grew up on the Greenbrook fishing and trapping off Shepard Ave. on the Middlesex boarder. Back then just below the bridge was a bend with a fallen tree that we would sit on and catch all sorts of creek chubs and panfish all day long, the water was very clear. I still remember vividly going down there to fish one day and the brook was covered in dead fish, it seemed as if every fish that once lived in there was floating on the surface, devastating as a child.
I don't think we went back to the brook much after that. To this day the single biggest tire pull in one day was on the Greenbrook by Rt 28.
