Millstone River surveys...
Got my hands on surveys done in July & October 2013. 4 spots were surveyed - Griggstown, Blackwell Mills and upstream/downstream of Manville/Weston Dam. I can't upload the PDF here but can share some info. They basically electroshocked from boat anywhere from 150m up to 800m of the river. Most common species were Eels, carp, sunfish, darters and shiners. Few gamefish were found but among them were lmb, smb, pickerel and walleye. The size and depth of a stream can greatly affect collection so low gamefish numbers are not unusual. 6 walleye up to 27" were found downstream side of dam. One flathead catfish caught which was the first ever caught in that watershed. I asked for the data to see if any pike were found and they were not. Thanks to Shawn Crouse at the NJFGW for the help.
