Passaic River

Hello all...I'm in the Summit/Chatham area and nearby some stocking points on the Passaic. Being fairly new to fly fishing, I've never been out on opening day...or opening month for that matter. But this year I'm chomping at the bit. Anyone have any opening week/month tips? In April, can I go out at 5:00am thru 6:30 a.m. before work and have any hope of success? When fish are first stocked ,are their feeding patterns or tastes any different than later in the season? Any pointers on fishing riffles vs. pools this time of year, or should I just move around? Do they tend to hunker down in pools because of the new environment until they're aclimated? Thanks for any suggestions.

Artie
