Passaic experts please.

Ok, let me start this off by saying I am not looking for anyone to burn specific spots. I'm a fisherman too, I know thats a no-no.
Now, my buddy and I have been really itching to catch our first pike and the Passaic deffinitely sounds like the place to go. However, this area is about an hour and a half away from me and we only have until about 2:00pm to fish tomorrow. So its not like we can go up and explore mile after mile tomorrow.

I was thinking about starting where the passaic meets the pompton at 2 bridges rd and working my way back down east along the passaic(towards the patterson area/general direction. Am I in the complete wrong direction? Should I be starting way further east(garfield and east) or maybe even the other way on the other side of the Meadows?

Like I said I'm not looking for you to burn your honey hole. Just maybe two towns to work in between or something like that. PM me if you like thats fine too. Ive been aksing alot of questions on here and you guys have been great so far. Thanks for everything.
