Hi Folks, Sorry didnt post this sooner but I have had a very active weekend. Friday Tracy and I fished the Ramapo Reservation and found plenty of trout. Tracy got 4 rainbows, one brookie and 5 browns. I got 12 browns. Seemed like brown roostertails with gold blades did the job well. The river was at a nice level after the early morning thunderstorms rolled through. I hope we get a shot of rain like that at least once a week!
For the rest of the weekend we went canoeing at Lake Waywayanda and teased the bass for a while. When I say teased I mean teased! I through spinner baits, poppers and rubber worms only to have lots of bass and pickeral follow them to the boat but none would hit. Oh well we still caught plenty of jumbo sized bluegills to keep the rods bending.
Today we kayaked Round Valley Reservoir for a bit, not a bite on any of the baits we through out. It was a wonderfull day on the water though. We are both sorry to see the weekend come to an end. Next Friday I hope to get out again until then stay posted!
Hi,
ReplyDeleteHow can you access the Ramapo river from Ramapo Valley County Reservation? Do you need to walk or there is a road?
Thanks
The Ramapo Reservation is on Rt 202 just south of Ramapo College. After you pull in the parking lot you have to walk about 150 yards from the parking area to the river. There are dirt trails and gravel roads that have no public vehicle access. Once you get down to the bridge, you can fish both upstream and downstream there are nice pools on either side.

DeleteDoes the bridge is the one in Halifax Road, Mahwah, NJ?
ReplyDeleteThanks
No the bridge on Halifax goes to a private community. The bridge I'm talking about is inside the park itself.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I know where is now.....
