So there I am, in Monmouth County on a creek that is 2 feet below spring levels, sweating like a pig, throwing a bass lure hoping for a pickerel or something, and this happens! :eek:

I talked to guy bass fishing on Farrington Lake a couple weeks ago. The water temp was close to 80, and he said he caught a 12" rainbow on 4" senko:eek: .
This was back in the shallower part of the lake. Go figure, I can't get a bass (yet) on a senko!

Lard is famous for catching Pickerel on Trout baits and Trout on Bass baits.

12'' Brookie no less. I'm bagging RVR and heading to Monmouth Co.

I've also caught catfish while bass fishing, bluefish while trout fishing, and walleye while fly fishing. :confused:

I'd rather be lucky than good. :cool:

Trout under around 14" can survive under a waterfall, just enough shade to keep the water a little cooler and plenty of oxygen. However come the end of Sept, they are pretty skinny and rough looking after their summer ordeal.

Man I have caught them all casting for LMB, catfish, bluegill, pickerel, pike, even carp believe it or not, but not a trout on what looks like a jerk bait.


COOL Catch:cool: :cool:
