SmokenClay 21 Posted July 29, 2023 There used to be shops near Round Valley. Hi-Way Sports north of Spruce Run in Washington used to get them but apparently no longer can get them. Anyone know of any place? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My Dutch relatives don't really agree but I have yet to succumb to their weirdo ways regardless if they put onions or whatever on it. Sadly I am my way out with a bucket of shiners... wish me luck!

GRIZ 3,369 Posted July 30, 2023 Any Jewish or Polish deli should have herring. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnnyB 4,326 Posted July 30, 2023 You can also look for Blind Robbins. Just another name for slightly dried smoked herring filets. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SmokenClay 21 Posted August 2, 2023 4 hours ago, DaddyNick said: I'm primarily fishing for trout at Round Valley or Merrill Creek. Always did best with live herring. I wouldn't mind getting my own herring however that is closed in streams and only allowed in certain lakes which can't be taken from the shoreline. Can't use a cast net in trout stocked waters so perhaps I could try a dip net at Merrill Creek but no method is allowed at Round Valley. I just don't see it being worth pissing fishing time away trying to catch herring, I'd rather just buy them if that's still possible. Bait shop I got the shiners at (The Sporting Life - Nice guys!) mention there's one guy up at Lake Hopatcong but that's a bit of a hike for me. I would have to get them the afternoon prior and try to keep them alive overnight. I'm getting desperate so I might just have to give that a whirl.
