South River
( 40.43920, -74.36810 )

  1. Raritan River - Edison ( 40.48791, -74.38382 )
  2. Raritan River - Sayreville ( 40.47450, -74.35606 )
  3. South River - Grekoski Park ( 40.43898, -74.36086 )
  4. South River - Old Bridge ( 40.41228, -74.36362 )
  5. South River - Sayreville ( 40.45397, -74.37222 )
  6. South River - South River ( 40.45838, -74.38361 )

My preferred launch point is on the river behind the little strip mall off Route 527 / Old Matawan Rd. I have never had a problem parking here, although I don't think this would be a good place for a large group to show up. Entry can be messy if the water is low. I wouldn't wear white. The launch site is pretty muddy at low tide, try to hit this spot when there is plenty of water.


Weston's Mill Pond
( 40.46777, -74.42707 )

  1. Davidson's Mill Pond - East Brunswick ( 40.41117, -74.49789 )
  2. Farrington Lake - East Brunswick (C) ( 40.42465, -74.47680 )
  3. Farrington Lake - East Brunswick (N) ( 40.43900, -74.46646 )
  4. Farrington Lake - East Brunswick (S) ( 40.42201, -74.48242 )
  5. Lawrence Brook - Milltown (E) ( 40.45144, -74.43663 )
  6. Lawrence Brook - Milltown (W) ( 40.44831, -74.44367 )
  7. Weston's Mill Pond - East Brunswick ( 40.46677, -74.42603 )

Westons Mill Pond is the northernmost of several lakes created by damming the Lawrence Brook, which flows from south to north, and into the Raritan River. This access point is the road that led up to the old bridge, which is gone. There is always enough parking and it is an easy launch, just a few yards to the water.


Deal Lake
( 40.23338, -74.01328 )

  1. Deal Lake - Asbury Park (N) ( 40.23759, -74.00784 )
  2. Deal Lake - Asbury Park (S) ( 40.22957, -74.00938 )

This lake has a lot of different branches to explore, and you can actually go quite a long way. The two marked sites are the best accesses for the northern and southern branches of the lake. Unfortunately, located in the middle of Asbury Park, the water is not the cleanest, especially near the railroad and toward the drain at the beach. The 'headwaters' are better.
