Headed up to Clinton Rd this morning. After stopping to buy a fishing license, then fishing and boating permits, we finally got on the water about 10:30. Conditions were rough. Windy, cool, and passing showers.

Fished till about 3, landed 6 smallies. 2 average and 4 fatties. Got 3 of em trolling crankbaits, 1 on a spinner, and 2 on shiners. Great first outing in my new craft.

Not too sure since i havnt equipped myself with sonar yet. I would say rough estimate, 12-15 ft. I was trolling along the shoreline maybe 20 yards off shore.

Don't think you were that deep as I see the launch behind you that area is shallow and with lots of humps, if you were over 10 ft max that would be a good guess. Beautiful fish and yes the Newerk watersheds minus RVR is the best waters to fish bar none.
