Hopatcong Report

Laurie Murphy:


We are still open with bait & boat rentals and are happy to report that the advisory for the algae bloom has been lifted for pretty much the whole lake. We still have herring, but only smaller ones & will continue to net until the end of the month. We are fully stocked for the fall jigging season and will start to get ready for hopefully, what will be a great ice fishing season. For the few fisherman still out there, reports have come in for lots of yellow & white perch, pickerel, hybrid striped bass on chicken livers & some walleye and nice crappies, along with several carp caught on jigs in deeper water. Pete Rathjens made his way to the scale with a Largemouth, weighed in at 5 lb 2 oz. Our hours for the fall are 6:30 AM - 6 PM. We are also set up with Fish & Wildlife’s new licensing system & it is up and running. Have a great week !
