Fished the Rockaway River in Dover this morning

[americandesi]

I know that this stretch is urban by Jersey trout standards, but man there is a lot of trash along the river. Is there someone I could talk to about organizing a cleanup?

Anyway, I had a good hour of fishing. The rainbow trout were very active this morning, and the water temp was 58. I think the overcast sky helped. Caught 3, and had one break my line (4 lb test). Are the Pequest rainbow trout jumping less when they are hooked than in the past or is it just me? They still put up a passionate fight though
