Rama-slo report 4/13

[BT67]

took the afternoon off to hit the Ramapo. Figured between all the fish put in for opening day and a fresh stocking yesterday there would be plenty of action. Man was I wrong, dead, fished a several hundred yard stretch in an area that has always produced in the past with what appeared to be optimum flows and was only able catch 1 small trout in 4+ hours, rolled a decent one and that was it, very disappointed. Saw several other fisherman and no one was catching squat.

I think the majority of trout took the day off to enjoy the nice weather. Definitely thinking that to myself after my experience today :P

BT67 I was out yesterday on the lower south branch of the Raritan and had two bites. In the 40 years I have been trout fishing, it was as quite as it gets. I believe the rapid rise in water temp has them messed up. Mother nature sure dose not like drastic changes in my humble opinion. Did not hear much of birds or other animals making a lot of noises. Just my 2 cents.

Boat loads of us fishing the trout stocked sections of the Raritan, slim to nil on the fish. Thanx for checking in.
