Planning to visit Musconetcong NJ next week ... before the weeds take over!
Any advise on where to fish the lake?
Willbe in a Bass Boat

Try River Barge Park on the Hackensack. There's a boat launch. Looks nice on the map. I'm going there today.
I don’t have a boat anymore but lake hopatcong is near the lake you mentioned. All kind of fish in there. Hybrids walleyes bass pickerel panfish ect. Trout. And a healthy population of alewives.

Where do they trout stock in Hackettstown NJ as I am new to the area? Thanks Guy
Fish the Musconetcong River. You can access one good spot by heading out of Hackettstown on Rt.57 I believe it is towards Washington. Make the first left after the WalMart in Mansfield cross a small bridge park and fish that area. When l lived up there i fished it with great success. Remember if the water is high wade out a little and fish behind you along the shore line you just came in from. Guys fishing the fast current get skunked as the fish hug the shore lines in high water.

Thank you so much! I am a young 70 year old and have fished fresh and salt water since I was 8!! It's so refreshing to have the comraderie of anglers. Truly appreciate you!
We sound like contemporaries. I to have been fishing from the time i was old enough to hold a rod. I'm in Lantana, Florida now fishing the east coast surf, with not lot of luck, but i enjoy just being out there.
