Just received an etrex legend for Christmas from my wife. I do a good bit of fishing at Colliers Mills and was interested in getting software similar to the package sold by Garmin. When I looked at their software today it looked like it only charted a few large bodies of water. Any ideas for the lakes at Colliers Mills?
No such luck. I just checked their "Fishing Hotspots" maps and it only shows the body of water, not any depth info.
Here's Success lake, for example.
Interesting that it puts Success on High Bridge Road, and other maps put it pretty much where the lake is now.
I might have to poke around that area now.

Colliers has soo much potential. I've heard rumors about so many rare animals there, and its VERY close to where i live--i just haven't had a chance to really explore it. Whats really great about Colliers is their maintainance of fields. Its most likely to facilitate the hunting there (since deer are an edge species), but it also provides living space for a great number of other species that depend on the ever-shrinking amount of field habitat in NJ. Its a great example of NJ actually managing the wildlife in a WMA.
Last spring I visited just after a controlled burn (which I assume is at least partially employed to counteract succession.
(check out the tire tracks in the charred ground)

Thank you for your replies. Colliers Mills is a great WMA.
Colliers Mills is also VERY spooky at night.

spooky is fun
I thought things that looked like my avatar might come out and get me.
In my browser it just says "I have no idea what this avatar is." Should I be seeing some sort of picture there?

You are having the same problem I did, and here is how to solve it. At the top of the page click on the "User Control Panel" and then click on "Edit Options" on the left side. Scroll down to the "Thread Display Options" section and make sure the "Show Signature, Show Avatar, and Show Images" boxes are checked. Then scroll to the bottom and save the changes. Now you should be able to see Ben's unusual but interesting Avatar, along with Bobbleton's with a toad on his nose, and others. :)

Thanks, it works now. I have hundreds of little frogs like that around my house also! This year there were more than I've ever seen before, they somehow seem to breed in my basement although I can't figure out where they come from (it's a finished basement). Each morning I'd go downstairs and catch bunches of them, then relocated to my pond.
Happy New Year to everyone!

In taking a short cut thru Colliers Mills last week, I saw a pheasant hen & rooster. It's good to see that they wintered over.
