Whackin' and Stackin' Raritan river 5/29/16:

[AndyS]

Hit a section with a buddy of mine to do a clean sweep in the Bridgewater area.
Fishing is good down river, Somerville (who can't spell) seems to be off limits.
Fished a few spots on the 30th around Raritan but got skunked.
Took 4 tires from the river to Mavis Tire and Auto, no charge for disposal.
Somerset County Parks is helping with disposal also.

Nice work on the cleanup and for landing a few bonus stripers to. A great way to cap a day off.

It kills me that in this state, some land we own we can't use. Municipalities seem to think of themselves as individuals when in reality they are owned by the people and have no right to bar us from any public land. Nice light tackle fare you found there. I was up to my waist in the Big D at Scudders Falls last night looking for some of them small stripers, but got the skunk.

what's the deal with the somerville part being posted? i thought they were trying to make that all greenway through there

[AndyS]

They are making a Greenway through there, but in the summer months parties get out of hand down there. Took us 5 years to clean up the mess along the river. Already there are broken chairs and left over beer bottles and aluminum trays of rice and beans discarded in the brush.
