The warm waters of the Delaware River at the Trenton power plant gave up action, said Bill from Brinkman’s Bait & Tackle in Philadelphia. Smaller striped bass were sometimes caught on Storm shads and Sebile jointed crank baits. A few walleyes were grabbed on nightcrawlers, minnows and smaller shad bodies. Walleyes also hit well up in New Hope and Lambertville on the river, and minnows, nightcrawlers and Rapala crank baits nailed the 2- to 4-pounders. The Stockton Bridge area was another solid spot to fish on the river, and an angler there picked up 11 walleyes that weighed 3 to 5 pounds, three yellow perch and a 4-pound smallmouth bass on shad bodies. Farther south on the river, catfish gobbled up bloodworms and stink baits off Station Avenue, Linden Avenue and Princeton Avenue. The ice disappeared at Dredge Harbor on the river, and anglers there tangled with largemouth bass around the dock pilings while tossing jigs, minnows and shiners.
