Raritan river 5/17/11:

[AndyS]

Fished from 9 to 11am, threw about 6000 casts, nothing. FASTEDDIE is still down there. Water was lower than yesterday, today it was 19.5 compared to yesterdays 21.5. Went and did a few throws by the small waterfall near RJ's steakhouse in Manville on the Millstone, I guess the shad stack up like cord wood there.
Looks like with 4 inches of rain coming it'll be time to hit some lakes for a while. By next Monday or Tuesday it should be good.
