A few nice fish during late summer, well done.

Any problems fishing Natirar, I assume they allow fishing but do not stock it? I was up there last w/e walking around with wife for exercise, checking out the stream.

I believe there's a designated fishing spot but I never had problems, even on weekends, fishing beyond of that spot.

Not stocked but it seems trout have no problem swimming up to that stretch (until they hit the dam) could be holdovers or peapack brook fish taking a trip.

Cool Re: North Branch Raritan

I hit the lamington last night, running very shallow. Still found fish biting in just-deep-enough water, some in high current. Nothing big this time but average fish was a few inches bigger. Found 6-12 bass per run.

Watch out for turtles as they seem to be active mating. Spotted three on the wade back when it was getting dark. I never had one snap at me but i worry sometimes when i see those huge heads lurking where ill be putting my feet.
