![]() The NJ hackettstown crew does an awesome job spawning these beautiful creatures, thanks for the photo's and insights. NJ has an excellent hatch rate % also.
I believe the small musky fry are the only species that requires live food ( fat head minnows) to eat when raising them to stocking size. Ken, did they mention anything about Echo lake trapnets? I was there on Saturday and they were not set in their usual locations. I believe that photo is actually form echo nets in the past. |

Looks like you had a fun day. As I understand it, NJ doesn't really stock that many bass. They mostly rely on natural reproduction and stock bass only in a few bodies of water that are having population problems or were drained and re-filled. Correct me if I am wrong. .
