They ve both been lower in the last 10-15 yrs....not a BIG deal....funny thing is they both fish better at full pool, when you would think the opposite would be true.....

Nothing you read applies to Jersey fishing. Same goes for the "fall feeding" frenzy, you have better luck running into a susquach

you might think hey less water, less area for more fish to hide...doesn't work that way. when lower water pushes the same amount of fish into less area it really seems to stress them out and the fishing suffers. They still have to eat but good luck!

and for the fall feeding frenzy...it happens bro! stand by for pig smallmouth pics next month!!!!

Does anybody know if you can still launch a boat? It was getting a bit difficult for for larger boats last time I was there in May. I was thinking of an Oct camping and fishing trip, but I'm not going to book in advance if there is a chance I can't launch the boat.

Mid October through January 1, besides the herring spawn, is my favorite time to fish. The fish most definitely ARE feeding heavy for winter. We've had multiple days throughout fall when we've put over 40 Hybrids in the boat, slammed the biggest, fattest Walleyes of the year, big LMB's, as well as "unplanned" battles with Muskies. The biggest difference between "Jersey fishing" and "everywhere else" is the seasonal patterns of forage base. Ours(Alewife) go deep in the cooler temps, where as in other parts of the country they (shiners, cisco, etc.) move shallow. If you are a bank-pounding Bass fisherman, you surely won't have much success. Think deep and your catches will increase .
