wired are you still fishing down around whre you have been fishing?  Or have you ventured north.  I was thinking of going to the Zane grey fishing access to take my old man out for some shad.  was really hoping to get him some shad.  Our other option is going to milford ad fishing there. 

thanks for the info in advance. we're going out in the morning.

They should be up there. And yes I was in the same area. An old timer told me ,he gets them there until mid june. Seeing more dead ones and sea lice now. Still some fresh fish to fight. They are up at the tri-state marker, but not like down here.  I might take a ride up today.

Fishgalore and I went out for shad and walleyes today. No waleye but the shad liked my swim bait. Went 10 for 12 on shad. Slowing down ,but still plenty of shad in the river.

Wired smoked me this past outing he caught lots more than I. I went 1-2 on shad and 0-0 on anything else. The plan was to fish for Walleye. I tried just about everything except to fish at night on the Big D even though we went at the break of day and were the 1st on the water near our location.

Fished overnight for Walleye and Hybrids on Lake Hopatcong Saturday into Sunday. Mike had 2 Hybrids on, one to the boat (I saw it then it bee lined for weeds where it shook the hook. It was about 5-6 lbs) and the other broke him off and took the Zara Spook. There was plenty of top water noise we just weren't on 'em. Another bud lost a 30" Waldo at the boat the same night, same lake.

Mike & I switched to smaller fish along the shore in the am and hammered, Crappie (White & Black), Perch, Sunfish, a couple LM Bass, one tiny Smallie and a few Rock Bass.  Lots of fun for about 3 hrs.

Always a good time with you buddy. I think many of the shad stayed down low this year. Not much going on in the north.

2 weeks ago I ran into a large pod of hungry shad well north of Callicoon. Last weekend a buddy got a few also. Always hit and miss for us up north. I havnt been on the river like normal though this year... The walleye action has been decent and the troutin has been real good...

All I can say is the Gap area was great this year. Plenty of 5 and 6lbers

floated from Poxono and the Water Gap this morning with 2 buddies....its ridiculous the number of shad in the river....I think we went maybe 3 minutes without having 1 under the yaks and in many spots we saw 40 or 50 schooled up like bunker but none of us brought any shad gear figuring they'd be few and far between 


did manage a half dozen eyes between us with only 1 keeper and a few smallies, rockbass, fallfish, and a channel cat

It has been a blast. My daughter told me yesterday at Worthington , there where fins all over. I got them on Swim baits last week.
