Can I get an updated list of recommended shuttle services around Hancock?

For a fly fishing story I am writing, would love to know IF you prefer sight fishing and more importantly, WHY? What is it about sight fishing that you find most compelling?

Can anyone steer me to specific places to access the upper Passaic in the Mendham area? I hear there are wild trout and would like to give a try.

I have several copies of the Orvis Guide to Great Sporting Lodge Cuisine: 150 Recipes from the Greatest Escapes in North America, that I want to give away to NEFF friends. These are advance copies with black and white photos, rather than color photos. The book came out in 2008. Aside from being...

Am planning to take my 4 year old son to float the mainstem this weekend for his first time. I'd like to do a combo of fly fish (me) and spin fish (him). Any tactical suggestions?

Thinning out my book collection. I have four Gierach books to sell as one lot. Still Life with Brook Trout (hardcover, 2005), At The Grave of the Unknown Fsherman (hardcover 2003), Another Lousy Day In Paradise (softcover1996) and Fool's Paradise (hardcover 2008, missing outer jacket). These...

Where did the rainbows come from in Van Campens? Never used to be there. I have been fishing there for 30 years and saw my first rainbow there over the weekend.

I would have loved to see the look on the thieves' faces when they discovered what their loot was.... LINDEN, N.J. (AP) -- Thieves netted nearly $130,000 worth of bait fish when they stole a refrigerated container from a trucking company in north Jersey. The more than 63,000 pounds of menhaden...

Hit the upper D for trout, or the lower D for shad? What to do???

I just saw a story on TV about a huge Islamic compound located in Hancock. Anyone know where that is? I own land up there but this was the first I had heard of it. The compound is called Islam-berg, I think

I was reading a story today on ABC News that made me think of this site. Specifically, the nastiness that arises over some posts when people disagree on the content. In this ABC story, some poor depressed kid killed himself live online while a whole group of A-holes egged him on with nasty...

Anyone recommend any seafood shops down the shore from the Sandy Hook area down to about Pt. Pleasant? Next fishing trip, I'd like to stop in and bring some fish home to cook. That is, aside from the monster striped bass I plan to catch :)

This may be a dumb observation, and I'm sure that some individuals here will be completely happy to point that out, but everything that I have personally seen from the groups arguing for increased Delaware flows focus on saving the "trout fishery," the "trout habitat," etc. Why not focus the...

I read a LOT of books about fly fishing. Not the hands-on "learn how" books, but literature books telling stories. Gierach, Nick Lyons, McGuane, etc. Why is it that every fly fishing author these days seemingly must write about how they lost their virginity? It's actually not just limited to...

Dennis, At one point when looking at the site, when I moved my cursor over one of the thread titles, the contents of the post popped up in a window. It was great because you didn't have to open the post to get a peek at the contents. Now, the site no longer does that -- I have to click on the...

can anyone recommend a car shuttle service in Hancock? Thinking about taking my son on a float this weekend and need someone to drive the car to takeout.

I take the train to NYC most every day and pass over the Passaic River right in Newark. This morning the train stopped for a few moments over the Passaic River there and I saw several HUGE swirls on the surface, some very large fish feeding on something. What could they be?

There' a great new book out called Orvis Guide to Great Sporting Lodge Cuisine. It features about 140 recipes from some of Orvis' finest lodges around the country. Great photos and recipes for all sorts of game, sides, desserts. In addition to the recipes, it's cool to get the inside view of...
