Trout opener / Sunday slabs

[Mikey topaz]

Well got in the 2022 trout opener tough conditions but I got it done. River was a little stained and running high. Pink salmon eggs were the ticket for me this year with some on the powerbait. No big fish caught or seen. Sunday I ran a guide trip with some well known njfers. We had to keep moving to stay on top of em but we put a nice catch together boxing up. The guys wouldn’t let me just stand and watch so I was forced to fish. Water temp warmed up a few degrees since during the week so that’s good. Let’s hope this weather holds and we don’t get 6” of snow next week

hey you guys did well good eating crappies there. that wind was a pain in the ass but i did manage to get a bunch myself, one was a 1lb15oz best so far this season. the snow was a surprise lets hope that was short lived with the lake so full the bigger crappies should move into the shallows when it starts to warm up a bit. I am still after" EL CRAPO " i will find his ass sooner or later he has managed to elude me so far...
