Brown Trout

could happen, but probably slim chances

DFW says they get next to no reports of sea runs from the manasquan
nobody ever posts sea runs here on NJF
what's more likely, it is working and nobody talks/knows about it or is it not working?

i'd guess it's probably just not working. they would have to dump a whole hell of a lot more fish into the river in each year to get a sustainable run started. probably would have to make it no-bait/no-kill for several years too if they really wanted it to work.

sea runs in NJ is a nice idea, and there will always be those one or two fish that make it back but i just don't see a population happening in any numbers.

maybe on the raritan in the future when the dams up on the SBR and NBR come down and each year fresh fish can move down from the spawning areas in the upper stretches of those rivers
