Raritan river float 10/27:

Trout are alot tougher than most people think. Very rarely do I see alot of dead trout in the summer.

I'll just keep writing my letters to F&G. They can't even stock walleye or pike ?

that's wilson holding the trout from april 2009, I believe the confluence is most active in the spring.

If you would like to have it stocked i suggest contacting the F&G and have a petition circulated to have sportsman sign. Or attend your county sportsman federation association.

Union Cty will be having a meeting on the 5th of Nov. a biologist from F&G will be in attendance.

My son with a tiger caught on the south branch cpl yrs ago thats what prompted the call to F&G.

beautiful fish!

Oops! My apologies!

It's suck a nice piece of water. Has anyone had much luck in that area? Or shall I say/ask, is anyone willing to divulge a bit of info on the area?
