Fishing Log

No fish for us yet. Had a few pings two days ago, but those could have been carp.

Facebook can kiss my bass

The other site is on face book and is called Delaware River Shad Fishing Reports. If most members used this site instead, there would be no need for the other.

3/11/20 fishing report— fished the lower Susquehanna this morning and landed 2 hickory shad, lost a couple others. Water around 49 degrees. First of the season there for me

Parking not free in P-burg (unless something changed) - paid $35 last year for a season to park, but only managed to get out for 1 trip to Easton. Every time I was able to go, the river was running too high and had to cancel. Usually only able to make about 2 - 3 trips, anyway, so still kind of costly/trip.

The shad have been actively biting for the last two weeks,not a lot of fish but they hit when they come through. Averaging about 3 landed an hour. If your patient an in a good spot you will catch some. Water has been in lows 40s when I was fishing. It’s up to 47 now so the bite should be better. Finally for the guys asking I can assure you that some of the shad are up to and past Easton by now.

DAVE, there is a public launch at Scott Park just downstream from the free bridge in Easton. This log seems to be superfluous as most all the DRSFA members post on the Delaware River Shad Fishing Reports site instead of this one (except for sales pitches)..

A bit disappointing that those fishing Easton yesterday (03/10) did not report here. Perhaps they are not members?

River wolf...great to hear you are well! I say you bring the hotline back!!!! Tight lines sir!

Have a few dates lined up next week for those anglers in need of shad spoons, bass tackle, reels, line and much more. I'll be at the Westaby Fire Hall in Bucks County at 6pm on Friday March 13 2020. On Sat March 14, 2020 I will be at the Hawghunters Flea Market in Allentown PA. Sunday March 15,2020 I will be at the last fishing flea market for me for the season at Sergeantsville Fire Hall in Delaware Twp NJ. This is a great event with over 90 vendors of new and used fishing tackle. Lots of bargains and deals to be had. Fly tying demos, door prizes and food available for purchase on site. Check out details for all of these events on ScottsBT Flea Market on Google. Hope to see you at one or all of these great shows. Kevin "shadillac" Ingram

I hope he is doing well!!!

WTG. Look forward to it!

Is there any place to launch and park at Easton other than P-burg?

Finally got my 1st shad of the year on my third trip. The first trip was on 2/24/20 & the 2nd on 3/1/20. Hooked 2 landed this one. The hook pulled on the 2nd fish when it was 15' from me. Both were smaller/average bucks. Also had 2 missed hits which were almost certainly shad. Broke off 1 big carp and landed a 4# sucker. Oh, boy! Bottom line. They are here. Water temp was 38.1 when I started and 39.1 a few minutes after I landed the first fish. PS Sorry for the poor pic. I bought myself a new toy (GoPro Hero8 Black) & I'm still learning how to get pics & videos in frame with the darn thing sitting on top of my head! All I got was the top of its head & part of my hand. <sigh>

To Frank Dennis l missed seeing you last shad season hope everything is OK. Maybe we'll meet up this season at Zane Grey.

Below are my question and answer about the fee change for the DWGNRA.

Looking to fly fish for shad this year.

NPS is proposing a park entrance fee for all activities in the Delaware Water Gap Recreation Area as part of the Visitor Use Management Plan update. What is the fee change proposal? – In accordance with Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act (FLREA), entrance fees are not charged to persons under 16 years of age or holders of the America the Beautiful–The National Parks and Federal Recreational Annual, Senior, Access, Military, or Volunteer Passes. Additionally, FLREA fees are not static and may be reevaluated in the future. These passes may be obtained at the park. A park-specific annual pass will also be available. This will keep costs to frequent and/or local users at $45 a year. A park-specific seven-day pass would cost visitors $25 (vehicle), $15 (person), and $20 (motorcycle). Seniors will be able to buy a lifetime pass for $80.00. Or a yearly pass for $20.00. After 4 yearly passes have been purchased they may be traded for the lifetime. I have requested info as to when we can expect the fees to be implemented and will report the answer when I receive it.
