About Ramapo River
The Ramapo River flows through Bergen and Passaic counties along the base of the Ramapo Mountains, offering a mix of stocked trout water and some holdover fish in deeper pools. It's a larger river than most NJ trout streams with more varied structure, accessible via Ramapo Valley County Reservation. Best fished in spring and fall when water temperatures are in range for trout.
Regulations
Standard NJ stocked trout regulations — general season, standard size and creel limits. Check Ramapo Valley County Reservation access rules. No current special trout management designations. NOTE: USGS gauge 01387500 is unverified — flow data may be stale or unavailable; check with local outfitters as backup.
