![]() Going by USGS gauges, in Fairfield its up about a foot from friday and dropping; in Chatham its up about 3-4" and leveling off...it will be cloudy in most areas for a few more days as it takes a loooong time for the silt/mud stirred up from rain to settle. Thats the biggest issue the river has: even the slightest bit of rain and its turns to chocolate. Odd thing is, the further downstream you go, the clearer it gets. I've seen it a yoohoo colored mess in Chatham and 5 miles downstream its turbid but fishable.

![]() I was out yesterday. Buddy of mine got a new trolling motor he wanted to test drive. Water level and flow were up and it was super muddy. Days catch was a couple 1# largies.
Did see just about the coolest Passaic pike hunting contraption ever. Ran into a guy out there with a kayak with an INBOARD MOTOR!!! Sick!! Let's just say, I was ready to make an offer. Second time we ran into him he said it was tough day as well but did manage to catch a couple. Didn't get into specifics on size or location though.
