I pretty much fish on the Delaware River since my boat is docked there. So far this year I've only caught one smallmouth about a month ago. It was a pretty nice size fish that was pulling me and the boat around. It's still early in the season and the fishing never gets really going until mid to late July. Last year was really tough with only 2 or 3 weeks all summer/fall that you could actually catch anything on lures. I don't use bait, I just use lures but I've caught smallmouth, sunfish, walleye, catfish, rock bass, stripers, northern pike, white perch, pickerel, herring on lures so there's enough to catch out on the river. But not a single bite in the last 3 weeks.
There's a nice 3-4 foot long water snake living on the dock though so it makes it fun heading out in the boat!
