monster smallie

[bronzeback]

forgot to post this giant i got with my nephew mid april the saturday before bass season closed. i emailed andy the pic and hope he can post it.

im out of town for a few months and ive been reading about the raritan. especially lard's post..

the raritan upstream from south bound brook from raritan to neshanic has always been incredible smallie, carp, largemouth and giant pure strain musky which are now gone bec of some ppl i kno bow shot all of em 15 20 yrs ago,,, scumbags.. i havent seen or heard of a nice musky in many yrs bec of these 3 or 4 dudes from raritan which i will not mention there names.

also im happy to say it always had large herring populations. i kno this bec almost every year i see large balls of herring and i snag one or two of them out and use as bait, especiall manville to nevias street raritan and although i only fish for smallmouth i accidentally catch shad and walleye from robert street.

im the raritans biggest fan bec i live on it my entire life.. idk if this is good or bad but i wish we can get some muskie and pike back in the raritan.
