Those Panfish can be very fun there on light tackle. Nice Crappies!

Re: Kayaks on the ROCK
 

I couldn't buy a crappie last trip up there !! great report. And you know the question I ALWAYS ask, how clean was the ramp and parking lot ??
Nice fish BTW :)

Re: Kayaks on the ROCK
 

Thx.

The launch and parking lot were clean. But the day was early. A few bags behind the Port-o-John.

Re: Kayaks on the ROCK

Re: Kayaks on the ROCK
 

The Rockies avoided us I see. Ha!!
How does one catch catfish in reservoirs? I have a basic idea. caught a few in the Passaic, but that about all the catfishing I've done. Live bait? Will they hit plastics if bounced off the bottom?

Re: Kayaks on the ROCK
 

Cut bait, chicken liver, hot dogs, shiners and panfish on the bottom. Catfish city. Worms too. Bloody, stinky, oily or alive.

Great day!
I got a big crappie in that same area too, but couldn't buy a smallmouth.

The ramp was similar my last visit, and there was a state park policeman there, not sure why but it was welcome
