This week I am heading to Swartswood Lake. I have heard it is the #1 walleye lake in the area. I got my 13' Wilderness all decked out, I have my Eagle 360c depth finder and I have my Lindy Rigger Extreme all prepared. I found the following map of Swartswood Lake at
New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife. My plan is to launch by 5:00 and attack the area labed "RO" just up lake of the State Park's swimming beach on the East side of the lake. If I am having no luck there and I am seeing nothing on the depth finder, I'll paddle over to the jetty at Nelden's Brook, although I suspect this would be a much better spot in early spring and pre-spawn.
I am also very thankful for my father and step-mother who are always so good to me on my birthday. This year they got a full outfit of lindy rigs and a Lindy Rigger extreme. They obviously know what they are doing as they live in South Dakota and both being retired, fish 4 days out of the week.
