Re: Lure/bait choice for NJ trout opener
Irish, wading in the front. Bands, 1 Rainbow on am opener on dam. Tuesday am limit of Bows,no love on castmaster. Switched to green/yellow powerboat and it was game on. Went back Wednesday am got a huge pickerel on powerbait. Size 18 treble in the corner of the mouth. I got my 6 Bows again on green/yellow and orange powerbait. They didn't want garlic, blue, or trout magnet green. I have been wading between the ramp and the dam. I miss my boat. The better spots can only be reached by a longgg wade or boat . Saw the Bald Eagle again yesterday and a Beaver swam by . Saw the oldtimer by the skimmer Sat. and Wed. catch a few. The skimmer has been my go to spot just not this year. When they stock Brookies the lure bite is much better. The coontail moss is starting to grow so it's getting tougher by the day. Pm me if you want more info. Nothing like smoked trout.
