Over at the Chestnut Neck Boat Yard we got word of some decent perch fishing with some stripers still mixed in being caught from the Mullica River despite this past week’s weather problems, by the anglers who braved the winds. Violet Meyer said the back of the bay and the mouth of the Mullica are also giving up some mixed size stripers to plugs and bait.

Perch fishing in the Mullica River was decent most of the year then got an interruption from the nor’easter and rebounded just in time for the second half of October and should go well into November, said sources over at the Chestnut Neck Boat Yard. In addition they mentioned local stripers also started to move into the lower river and are more than likely dining on the perch and these fish should stay in place through November. As a result the shop is stocking eels and spot for the linesiders.
