Halfway Bridge-Mullica River

Can anyone tell me which road this bridge is located on? I want to target white perch next month and I am told this is a pretty good spot for them.

Check out a Google Map of the Mullica River. There's a large concrete bridge which crosses the GS Parkway on the lower Mullica and a smaller span across an upper portion of the river. A traditional spot for white perch is Collins Cove which is immediately west of the Parkway Bridge just off the south bank of the river.

Thanks TJ! You don't need a freshwater license do you?

I am going to scout the area over the next few weeks. When I was a kid we used to do great with them the first week of March on the Metedeconk River in Brick Township. Now all of our perch spots are private land with McMansions on them. The only public area down river is Windward Beach and I have not had any luck there.

There's a bridge across the Mullica River at Green Bank on route 563. I didn't see anybody at Collin's Cove this winter but I saw a guy in a small boat fishing in the big tidal cove in Bass River on the east side of the GSP many times this winter. There is a fishing dock there near New Gretna. That may be a good spot.
