Connetquot River In 2003, the year in fishing began outside of New Jersey as a change of pace. Mark, Jamie, and his father ventured out to the Connetquot River to fish exclusively for trout. The Connetquot River has its own trout hatchery, which means all fishermen must follow their strict guidelines. Set up using a European style of river fishing, all fishermen have their own stations(docks) spread out approx. 50 yards apart. Wading in these waters are prohibited, and all hook barbs must be crimped. During trout season, you are allowed to keep 1 fish...but even that is questionable.

A pretty Connetcuot Brookie caught by Jamie at 10:38AM.

Above, Mark catches a nice female Rainbow Trout. How can we be sure it's a female trout? To the right, a picture of eggs that she emitted while holding. Please don't tell the nice folks at the hatchery. Caught March 29th, 2003 - 10:51AM

Mark's nice Rainbow Trout: March 29th, 2003 - 11:26AM


Mr. Capes, at one, with the river. Looks like he's wading, right? Fat chance! He follows the rules!
