Small fresh boat launch?
 

Gonna hit some stuff in Morris or Sussex counties tomorrow. I want to launch my small 12' rowboat (elec) but looking for launch sites is like looking for a needle in haystack- even with Googlez. Granted we drag the boat (wheels!) to anywhere really but .. ya know, where else?

I'm not askin nobody to give up Lake X or nothin, but smaller ponds lakes are appreciated.
We've already hit: Cranberry, Twin, Hopatcong, Jeff, Panther*, Highland* and Parsip* (***all private-had permits), Johnson, Bea Meadow, Ilif, Big/Lil Swartz (not lately), Wawayanda, Passaic and Whippany river.. Many others but these stand out the most...

So you can see we like to travel.. Recommendations? Sussex over Morris if possible but not terribly important.
Grinell? Crater? Deer Lake? Lemme know what yer thinkin....

HAH! Guys I was on the water by the time you posted! :D

Anyway, BANNER day, picked up 11 and my BFF (Best fishin friend) picked up 8. I'd say most were over 1.5, with three 3lber's in there for good measure.

We hit 4 spots today; Cranberry, 2 private (always w/ prior permission), and one Lake X ;)

Thanks for the replies! Tight lines ladiez!

BTW; I loooove Shepherds-- way in the back .-- I credit this lake and an old boss for truly securing this hobby for me.

Pompton is good, but nearly got stranded with old D/C Optima blue top... yikes. Never heard of Green Turtle, and Monksville- isn't that a special permit?

Green turtle pond is just up the road from skunksville aka monksville and you do not need a permit to launch it is state water. check to see if they are open with all this covid-19 stuff going on the ramps might be closed until later on in july.
