I have to make a trip out to Philadelphia within the next month. Anyone got any tips/advise/venue info about fishing out there ? Is it worth me packing a rod or two ?

I would have to stay pretty local as its a work trip.

You've got the Delaware river running thru Philly.
It's tidal down there, but above Trenton is better and easier fishing.
Loads of big carp, but might be a bit cold this time of year for them to come within casting range.
Maize, canned corn etc etc

No, but I've had a good look.
I haven't carp fished much over there, but like anywhere, I always have a good look.
I shouldn't be that much different than the Seine, it's just a bit bigger.
You know the score, weirs, dams, snags etc etc they all hold the carp.
