Made a end of the season run up to the Salmon with family and friends. Despite being May, still were PLENTY of fish around and fishing pressure was nice and light. Caught fish on just about every fly type. (Eggs, attractor patterns, streamers, etc.) Always nice to fish up there when the weather...

Those are the patterns that trophy bluegills charge up on!.......Then slowly back away. ~James

Those nymphs are instantly great swimmers! ~James

Never have had any complaints with Lamson reels. Currently have a Velocity in use. Great reel. ~James

Based on your film series..... no chance. ~James

Of course we would all like to fish for wild fish, in every situation, every day. However, I think most of us....especially us NJ natives would not even be fly fishing adults if we didn't get our start on stocked NJ waters. ~James

That is a really nice piece. ~James

When your feet are cold, its time to take a walk. Loose fitting boots with some space, and make a conscious effort to keep your toes moving while you are standing still. ~James

Not to go off topic, but, how was the steelie bite? Thanks for the review! ~James

Had a few GREAT days at 3600. As said by others, really have to pick your spots, and above all, be safe. The flipped over porta john in the video is a nice touch. :beingsick: ~James

Going a bit more old school, don't forget about Dave Whitlock. I have a strong feeling many of the artists listed above were influenced by his illustrations. ~James

If you're going to be fishing from a kayak primarily, go with a single handed rod. As others have mentioned, there can be a lot of boat traffic coming and going around the tip of the hook. Current is always a factor as well. Be safe. ~James

The state stocked 340 fish. Farrington is 289 acres. These trout get pretty spread out and specifically targeting them is tough . The healthy pike population enjoy them as well! So...if you are going to hit Farrington with the fly rod, I would plan on fishing for/catching panfish, pickerel, LMB...

This will be a great change to a section of stream that tends to get "fished out" in a hurry. I will get as many folks as I can to comment and support. ~James

Upper gauge is over 200 today. I would still fish it, but stay on the upper reaches of the river. Look for current breaks close to the bank. Places where you may normally stand may have fish holding in them today. ~James

Its 699 right now, but based on radar, and ground saturation, I'm going to say OVER. Hoping for under. ~James

Is the over/under. Place your bets. http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwisweb/graph?agency_cd=USGS&site_no=01396500&parm_cd=00060&period=7#.UbJjF6H0JiY.email ~James

It is good. I got it in a McDonalds in Prague! Nothin wrong with that! ~James
