Never fished it, though I agree the TPike stretch looks like nice water. Nice gradient to it. Check out its headwaters on the top of Chestnut Ridge on a sat map though...very exposed and a lot of farm land and golf course land usage. Both are generally not good for Trout streams. One branch also has a good sized reservoir on it. My guess is that a combination of these factors is its downfall by the time it reaches the forested, higher gradient TPike stretch.
It’s stocked, and not on the natural reproduction list, but a lot can change in the 10 or 15 years since the reports posted in this thread. Worth a fish IMO. Wild Trout, especially Browns, are tough and tend to show up in places you didn’t think they’d necessarily be. Worst case, there should be some stockies there. Tell us what you find.
