PB Wild NJ creek brown trout

[thmyorke1]

I went out Monday and struggled to find a bite but ended up with "One and Done"




Assuming this is wild because this is one of the State's Wild Brown Trout Enhancement streams, + I never happen to find any rainbows or other obvious club fish here.

my last NJ wild PB came from this same creek too, I'll explore some new stretches soon.
She flopped into the water during the selfie video, so I got a less than average photo nor a measurement. Guessing over 20 inches based off the net https://i.postimg.cc/sfH2Brq7/image.png

The NJ State Record sea run brown trout is still vacant. Catch a 5 lber and you will be the record holder. I never caught one in salt water.

That's a really nice brown, if you're only going to get one bite all day that's the one you want!

That’s a crazy catch in some skinny water. Great looking Brown dude!

Great fish. Bet she was real heavy pre-spawn.
