Here are some pics of my river, 5 min walk away from my house...I love the country...

^Those are islands in the distance, the river goes on for a while that way until it hits the ocean^

My boat, well...my dad's v

If you look in the first pic, you can see some turkey vultures, they were eating this bluefish. v

Mummichog Minnows
Atlanitc silverside minnows
American Eels
Pipefish
Atlantic Needlefish
Cunner
Striped Bass + biggest I caught was 55"
Sea Robins
Oyster Toadfish
Tautog
Winter Flounder

Scup

There are also
Blue Crabs

So this is a good river because you can go out and catch some nice fish to eat and get some clams for a clam boil

The river is also cool because there are now many Ospreys breeding here, they were all pushed out and now they are returning in promising numbers.

Im' glad you like it but its a river bro, this is just a small part of it. It is a big river, and it leads into the Atlantic. The temp of it, I have no clue exactly, but it is always pretty cool. The whole Watershed area of the river is about 50,000 acres.
