Trout Question

[Skunk City]

Welcome. They are also Trout-stocked waters in Essex County. They may not be as picturesque as some of the Sussex/Passaic waters, but still plenty of fish and good shoreline access to some bigger fish. I am an Essex County resident myself and usually hit my local Trout-stocked ponds to get my Trout fix.

I've had the best luck over the years with Wooly Buggers (mostly black, but olive works) and Gold Ribbed Hare's Ears.

I've also done OK with Muddler Minnows, Grey Ghost streamers and terrestrials, though it may be a bit late in the year for the latter.

i don't think it is, i just got blown up by something huge the other day using a jerk/stick bait and in the hold over lakes the 6 inch flies work until ice.
