South Branch 7/10 eve

[RockFish]

Bounced around the S.B. between Flemington & Neshanic last night with my son searching for smallies and new holes to fish. It was his first time wading in water shoes and swimsuit. There were quite a few people on the river either fishing or picnicking. I ignored those areas.

Fishing was slow. We managed 4 bass and 4 sunfish on our jigs and plastic worms. Of course the fish seemed to turn on as the daylight ran out. Highlight was watching the boy catch a 14" smallie on a 4'6" microlight rod -- turned out to be the best fish of the night!
