Sunday Monday Fishing-Funny Brown

[15FOOTER]

Had the chance for all 3 of us, bigfishy and our other buddy who will join here soon, to get out 2 days in a row. Caught alllll sorts of fish! Here are some pic worthy ones. Funny story about the brown..we hooked up with him brought him in to the boat to cut the leader right in the water and he swam away beautifully. We had a lot of good action at that specific point so we circled back around which took about 20 mins and whamm nice run off. Get the fish by the boat and its another nice brown...yeah no.. its the same fish we just caught with the same leader hanging out of his mouth lol So we had to take a quick pic and he healthily swam away again. All the smallies were 20 plus inches and bigfishy weighed his at 6lbs plus. The pickerel was like 24" all fish on bait. We heard a story about a 9lb smallie from an old guy recently..Does that sound possible in NJ or anywhere? Sounds fishy!

Nice catching, nice variety! Really good looking fish! Where is the pic of the 6.3 lb SMALLIE?????

As for Smallies that are over 6 lbs, definitely a couple in NJ waters. Fishing the Raritan river last year in late September, October I saw a pod of Smallies cruising together. There was 5-6 in this pod and they were all 19-21 inches except for one. The godfather of RR SMALLIES was swimming in this pod. This fish dwarfed the other Smallies that I caught that day. I'd say this fish was around 24 inches and insanely fat. She didn't want a damn thing I threw at her. They are out there, just hard to come by!!!!!!!

I forgot to put this one in..he actually posted this further down on his PB smallie post.

wasn't the longest one we've caught, this was 21" but really fat..they all look like they are starting to fatten up

We have seen some monsters in the Raritan too this year spotted a 25+ smallie in a pack with 3 others that had to be 20" same thing though..no interest at all..just got to watch them for about 5 mins..they cruised into the hole and everything swam the hell away. Waiting for fall

Way to get out there and destroy again..Thumbs up!!

Eddie, here's the pic he sent me earlier which I resized and fixed it up a bit for him.......6.3 #....Mmmmmmmmmm....I need one like that one!!

[FASTEDDIE29]

Yea man, that's a big ass SMALLIE!!!!! I see the big boys in the Raritan all the time. Even tried live crays and the big one still won't budge. I don't know what else to try! I've tried everything!!!!!

Very strange that you caught the same Brown twice!!!

AS ALWAYS, TIGHT LINEZ!!!!!!
