Re: Who's fishing this wknd and what's your target?
 

Millstone River carping and ultralight jigging. I caught 3,008 fish in 221 NJ fresh water fishing trips this year. Last week was good in a beaver pond a mile from my house in Central Jersey. Caught and released largemouth bass to 16", black crappies to 9.5" and bluegills to 8.5" with a 1/32 oz jig on 2 lb test line. Water temp was only 52 degrees in the cold rain yesterday. The fish will stop chasing lures soon in most of my spots.

Shucker!!! What's up man??? They start chewing down there yet???

Re: Who's fishing this wknd and what's your target?
 

I think I may try round valley shore fishing tomorrow for my first time. Is there anything specific I am going to need? I'm going to try for some big trout. Will I need live bait or will artificial lures and baits work? Also I'm assuming I should bring my medium rod with 8# test? My other rod has 4# test on it.

Any tips would be appreciated!

Re: Who's fishing this wknd and what's your target?
 

Either rod will work. Bring both. I'd try spinners (Mepps, Vibrax, Panther Martin), spoons (Kastmaster, smaller Krocs, Phoebes, etc.) and Rapalas from shore if you are looking for trout. I'm not sure if herring are still available. I got some a couple of weeks ago but the owner said that would dry up soon. It can't hurt to throw out a shiner or herring on a slip bobber on one of your rods. Or maybe even a Power Bait. And cast with the other.

Thanks Brian!

I appreciate it!

Ask the guys at the Round Valley Fishing page on Facebook.
I would guess the shore anglers are using a mix of live shiners and power bait. A few intrepid anglers will be throwing lures.

Thanks Eskimo. I will definitely do that.

I have Berkeley power bait grubs that seem to work on my lake not only for trout but bass and pickerel...so I could try that on a jig and see how well that does.
