What county do you live in ? How far are you willing to drive ?

I am willing to drive about an hour or less from Somerset county.

Dude if you want bullheads no need to leave Somerset. Go fish the canal and you'll get plenty and a channel here and there. Oh, and a few turtles...of course.

This. Nearly all waters in somerset county have bullheads. The D&R, the Millstone, the Raritan, even AnnVann pond in Hillsborough can be a fun night of catfishing. Personally, I would stick to the rivers or the canal though because you never know what kind of beast you may pull out!

how do I access the canal? Are there any specific spots?
