Just pounding away !!! Beating up that Manville stretch to no end. See lots of nice LMB along the way. Talked to 2 guys who launched at Manville and floated to Piscataway, they said no shortage of SMB up to 18" and saw 5 bald eagles to boot ! The amount of bait fish is insane. Checked Peters Brook stretch in Somerville, looks good. I should get back to fishing soon

Any trouble parking?

I parked at the lower end of Peters Brook and walked up, not a soul in site

This work is nothing short of amazing. I'm legitimately curious, are these from years of individuals dumping or was this commercial dumping?

Robert St car was probably from the old junkyard that used to be there and shifting sediment equals tire encores. Unless there's a breeding population now but they'd have to be finding little semi-pneumatics, compact spares etc.... to support that theory.
