Down by Trenton Brinkmans Bait and Tackle shop had this to say about the fishing "I tried to get Helen out but the threat of rain she did not want to go. So I headed to Trenton to get the weeks bait to find the river was up a bit, off color and really cold. The first hour was a joke with 4 boats fishing and no fish at all. Then they started to hit slow and sure and in three hours I picked up 30 fish. It had started to rain so I thought I would fish there so I headed up in the bridges and anchored up for and hour to just lose a few rigs. I packed up and headed down river. Now the rain had picked up but I thought I would give it and hour to see. By 2 in the afternoon I picked up 7 stripers and 7 catfish. The stripers were 29, 28, 28, 27, 26, 25 and 22 inches. I had 3 catfish up to 6 pounds." This Report was provided by Brinkmans Bait and Tackle at 4999 Linden Ave. Philadelphia, PA.
