Raritan river striped bass 4/16/19:

[AndyS]

Hit the big water in Piscataway. 2 casts, 2 fish and that was it, so strange. Probably more fish around, always amazed how these fish see these lures in the dirty water. Beats sitting at the duck pond soaking power cheese for nub finned stocked trout. All fish released of course. Wonder why this river was never considered for the sea run brown trout program that lasted some 20 years. I took 3 ticks off my waders today, 2 dog ticks and 1 deer tick, The1 had 5 ticks on him the other day, be safe, have fun !!
