You should probably be aware of the tide in the lower Raritan. Try to fish from a boat which will allow you to cover much more territory. I would just engage in generic freshwater fishing in that river with the knowledge that there are smallmouths, largemouths and stripers in there (and maybe the occasional walleye). If you want to go for catfish or carp, you obviously should fish differently for those species. There are so many tributaries of the Raritan, it's almost like the Delaware in that you never know what you could catch.
