 How has the fishing been over on the south side? I took the kayak out last Friday to Bloodgoods and paddled up the River all the way to the Parkway. I saw a few stockies nothing great. The stretch just downstream of where the river passes under the Parkway has a lot of promise. Rocky bottom and some nice deep holes (I had a depth finder and found lots of 8-10 ft.  holes - upstream of parkway dam I have located just one hole over 8 ft deep and it is way up in Kenilworth).  Not sure why I never seem to catch anything over there.  
I have mostly  fished the Nomahegan stretch of the river. I also fish the Dam by North union/Grays funeral home almost every night while walking my dog but no luck as of yet.  Once water temps start to rise they love to congregate below that dam.
