This video really provides great insight to what is going on with the Raritan River. It is nice to see so many groups working together for the greater good.

@ShereKhan77 im gonna hook nice fish dams or no damns.but like i said,if my page helps you.i insist you use it and feel free to chat with me about the river.go ask for me by face and see what people say.everyone from the old timers to the new guys."thats his river" they will tell you.make me a deal,when you take out nevius st falls,take out that god forsaken castle.please.

@ShereKhan77 also in for the rest of the summer myself and 4 other men are tageting catfish body length. days ago one was hooked,fought for 2 hours and lost hahahaha your on the beurocratic end of it,im actually up in that bush for 345 days a year.whatever feedback i been hearing from you guys seems way off key.heard a man in his 50s say "i thought fish dont run in that flood water" and i just had myself a healthy chuckle.come run the river with me.youll find the truth.

@ShereKhan77 quite honestly i think what was said at 2:33 is a lie.i think you want to "clean" and drop the river level to build.nothing more.nothing less.the fish you arent seeing come through your ladder are man sized and bail right over that fish ladder NOT in front of your camera.OH! i seen a loggerhead at cyanamid YEARS ago.i was walking up to the falls and it rose up like an island.flat face,big black eyes? thats not a snapper buddy lol.use my vids for your scientific evidence.

i usually only fish the raritan river.if you want a window on it.tune in to my station.the cleanup acts are fine.your lab info on size of species of fish is WRONG.you have a big catfish problem.something so epic the shad arent going to make a different.i seen catfish the size of my body.they are eating,bass and fish 20 inches or so.we hooked a soft shell turtle in sommerville nj catfishing.the big catfish are at the ladder and down of queens bridge.this is not a lie

What a great way to display the ongoing work that is happening on the Raritan River. It is a river in need of repair. Great to see all the highlighted groups speaking out about the problems, and proposing the next steps to clean it up!
