nice wild NJ brown trout
Havent done much NJ freshwater fishing until recently; after surf fishing and then staying in upstate NY and fishing for salmon/trout.
Started getting a few dink trout in NJ and PA despite this terribly low water. Today I got a nice one tho, probably the heaviest wild brown ive caught in NJ. Looking forward to more this winter... as long as the rain returns! https://i.postimg.cc/XZ8FScGd/120824...ed-4364021.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/cgL3sgwj/1208241303a2.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/nsZ7Pwzn/1208241315-HDR2-3.jpg |

How do you discern wild from stocked ??

Re: nice wild NJ brown trout
at least in this creek there's a dam separating the rest of the creek from the river system, so no escapees from the clubs i know in the river system.
I can only assume this is a wild born trout still, nothing is stopping someone from just dumping a 20 inch brown trout from a hatchery into their backyard creek lol? When i catch a large brown from the lower river system however, i normally assume it's from a club. Usually there's good evidence of the fins being roughed up but sometimes club trout look pretty healthy. |

Beautiful Brown buddy buddy! Hopefully more come out to play after the rains.
