Thanx fellas. I fish for Walleye like most people in Jersey fish for Trout, Im glad I finally got a keeper out of the Raritan River! Caught Walleye out of every body of walleye water this state has to offer. Ill be back out there tonight after work. FISH WITH STRIPES, YEA BUDDY!!!

Great fish man! Does the state stock them in the Raritan or are they wanderers from somewhere else?

I wrote to F&G and asked them to stock walleye in the Raritan. They said NO, it will effect the shad run, well.............. I got walleye in Raritan, saw walleye in Manville, got them in South Bound Brook and heard first hand reports of walleye in the Raritan in Bound Brook.

Soooooooooooooooo Stock smallmouth then, stock something, anything, heck 15,000 brown trout are wasted every year on the Muddysquan, why not dump them in the Raritan ???

I will continue to write letters, they can't ignore me forever.

No they are not stocked, and I have no clue where they might come from. Im pretty sure they stocked the canal with them at 1 point in time. I was throwing big jointed bombers for Stripers when this Eye got hooked. Eyes like jointed bombers, use them all the time on LH, Swartswood, Big D and Skunksville!!!

A lot of them are caught in the canal near the lock closest to New Brunswick,
