Striped bass are now spawning in the Hackensack, Passaic and Raritan rivers. Don't put all your money on the Hudson, things are changing as the rivers get cleaner.

They have been spawning in the raritan forever but not in big numbers. Caaught many tiny bass in Johnson Park for 50 years.Not enoughto make a dent. Years ago we caught sea run brown trout in Raritan Bay. They came from the Raritan. Giving awaway my age!
