Might be one or two in ALL of Milton. You have a better chance of catching a pacu in there than a slimer. Never saw one come outta Rahway park pond. Fishing used to be decent there but people don't know how to release fish and keep everything they catch so it's gone to shit. I saw guys punching fish and throwing them back over there on more than one occasion. They acted like they no aspeaka....

Darts are few and far between in UC unless you know where to go...
