Opening day came early

[FASTEDDIE29]

Hit a river this morning for a couple hours to get my fix and see what was thrown in. What I found was great, all Browns hitting lures and everyone at the spot was catching and releasing. I could tell you how many we caught but I won't right now. It was shooting fish in a barrel, a fish a cast pretty much. Gotta love those feisty Browns. With the rain coming it will spread these fish out quite nicely. What a morning, biggest Brown was around 12.5 inches. Hopefully anglers don't take em out of the river to fast when the season opens next week. GOOD TIMEZ!!! TIGHT LINEZ!!!

Leave a few for me there Eddie. I'm washing out my fishing vest. Had a bottle of bug spray explode in my pocket during the polar vortex winter this year.
3 years and this was the first wash.
It was still cleaner then a certain moderators NJFishing sweat shirt

Nice fish, if you don't mind me asking where can you go fishing before opening day.

Kamil, pick up the New Jersey Freshwater Digest at your local tackle store. This year is a little different than other years since some areas are getting trout that have never been stocked before. I do believe all trout are to be released until the actual opening day on April 5th.
