Most places, including leb. b&t get their herring from lake hopatcong(usually dows).....They don't start showing up in the lighted herring traps until then....So some years they are available sooner than others like last yr...This yr. was a bit more like a "normal" winter ,so third week of april sounds rite..;)

I checked with the NS tackle shop on Rt 31 next to BJ' in Flemington. They will have herring. The bad news is they are not open until 900AM and are closed on Sunday.

Saw a show recently on wfn about vertical jigging lakers and browns around the lake Michigan area. Far as smallies go, there's a plethora of colors and presentations out there. Why not try an alternative method?

Not to mention sales of artificials would bring in more profits............

The "I NEED BAIT" thing. Just sayin, other things might work to. But it would also benefit a store to sell some artificials as well as bait......

It's all GOOD !!! I'M one of those HERRING GUYS!!!! LOL I fish lures too but
at certain lakes IMO nothing like a nice big psycho herring doing the dance!
Hope everyone supports the new kid on the block so to say by buying both!
Glad to see someone opened up cause the smaller places are a thing of the past and all the generic sporting good stores all carry the same stuff.

Don't get me wrong, I def use bait now and then, just keepin the thread goin.

The show made me think of Merril Creek and Round Valley with the lakers they were haulin out left and right with a brown or two mixed in. :) I know theres plenty of smallies in there as well which will readily hit on a variety of lures. Can't comment on the wipers in spruce since I've never fished for them but I'm hopin to change that this year.
