Mr. Q looks great, but not wild.

Anon, there are no secret spots on the SBR. The river is loaded with trout from the gorge up to and above Long Valley. And most of it is easily accessed. Just look for water with depth and some flow, and there will be fish in there. I don't have any honey holes, I fish it often and rarely in the same spot two outings in a row. I'd get bored and wouldn't learn anything fishing the same spot over and over. The Musky has also been fishing well this year - try the Shurts Road access, or any of the bridge crossings along Rt. 57. And please carry a thermometer and don't fish if the water temp is over 69-70F.

Be well.

Still hoping to help neighbor between jobs who recently moved to Morris County. How about a few tips on best places for a fellow citizen to fly fish. I continue to spend time at a club as my walker has difficulty on streams such as the Gorge.
Of course, if giving away the "honey holes" is "agin" the code of pro's, I will understand

Would be very interested in where on the So. branch you fish. I fish private waters in PA exclusively, but my NJ neighbor always asks me where he can do quality fly fishing in NJ. I am no longer alble to answer with a useful response. Are you willing to share the "good spots" or do you wish to keep them to yourself and the mysterious alphabet identified few that respond. Public water is public water, stocked by our license fees. I am happy to fishing private water, too old to be skunked as the effort of geting out to fish is large when one passes the 7/8 th mark of life. Where do I steer my neighbor?

Could that be an elusive wild rainbow from the South Branch? Sounds like a great evening.......
