Passaic River- Toothy 9/13

[FASTEDDIE29]

Hit the river for a little while before work this morning. Water is low and thats the story all over the place. Ive never seen the Passaic this low. Anyway started throwing the usual spinnerbaits and swimbaits only to result in swings and misses. Thought about the situation at hand and decided to slow it down ALOT. Went 5/5 after I decided to take the presentation down a notch. Jigged up 5 PIKE, 3 of them average size, 23-24, 1 measuring 28. The final PIKE of the day was ripping drag going BANANAS, even did 1 jump for me. This guy measured a hair under 37 inches and weighed 11 lbs 7 ozs according to the crappy scale I had in my bag. Now thats a good start to the work day. TIGHT LINES, GOOD TIMES!!!:D

Thanx fellas. I wish the girl still had her tail, if she did she might have went 38-39. Fish swam off like nothing happened after a quick revival session. YEEAAAAA BUDDDY!!!

Great catching !! I have had a few with the tail like that and have no idea was causes it.

With crazy work hours for the next 8 weeks, I am pretty much screwed for the early fall. I did manage to get out in the salt water this week a couple mornings and one night for about 30 stripers up to 28 inches and too many monster blues to count.

Catch them up guys....great job again Eddie !!

I'm a huge fan of the 10 lb suffix. It's pretty abrasion resistant and doesnt loop out as much as other brands--been using it all summer.
