Any body have any advice as for what rivers or streams- or lakes may have fishable populations of walleyes in south jersey-any tributaries of the delaware, on the jersey side?
Walleyes are my favorite freshwater fish-I'm looking for trophies 28+ inches-I dont wanna have to drive 3 hours-to get them-I know there is a stream somwhere that runs into the deli-with big fat walleyes!!!! Can anyone help me?

I could be wrong, but I don't think you are going to find them too much south of Trenton, in the river.

No walleye in South Jersey. Go fish.

You want TROPHY Walleye in NJ? Uhhh...

I caught some really nice Walleye in the Trenton area of the Big D wading at night while fishing for Stripers. I was using black Bombers, also caught some monster Smallmouth. This was several years ago but I would bet they are still there in the spring.

I believe the best time for walleyes is at dawn and dusk. Apparently, they like to hunt food when there is little daylight. I think they are not to be found in SJ.

In the late 1970's the PA Fish Commission released walleye fry into the lower river. The man from the PFC told me they released about 7 million fry.

I was hoping but they never seemed to take hold.

Around the same time there was a population of walleye in the river near Trenton. One winter day my sons and I caught hundreds in the creek that drains Van Sciver Lake into Tulleytown Cove and the river. They were all about the same size, 10 inches. I never caught another walleye there.

well I do know a couple of secret creeks on the pa side where every spring big fat 8-10lbers are caught-the only problem is if i told you where here on the barn-someone might literally shoot me-no joke- but I'll go find em on the jersey side-and let you all who commented on my post where and how big-i promise

Not much "sweetwater" in S Jersey. Not "allowed" to divulge SPOTS here. 28" + is good whatever the drive
Good Luck
