Went ultralight jigging in a small beaver pond in Central Jersey the past 2 days and landed 44 fish with 1/32oz leadhead jigs and 1" twister tails on 2 lb test line. 24 bluegills to 8.5", 16 crappies to 13", 2 largemouth bass to 18", a 9.5" golden shiner and 9" warmouth were lots of fun on light tackle. The biggest fish escaped. It looked like a bass > 5 lbs.

When I returned yesterday evening, I caught 23 more bluegills and crappies but a very big fish escaped. 67 fish in 3 trips was great fishing. 4 days ago I only caught 1 small bass in the other half of the pond. A beaver sneaked up behind me, slapped its tail on the water very loudly and nearly gave me a heart attack.

Nj219bands, great report! With the numbers you put up its not too surprising why ppl get swole. Flattering or not, you gotta be doing something right to produce results like you have. Good report man, keep em ' coming!

On some of the youtube videos they pronounce crappie more like croppie probably so smart alecs like myself don't get carried away with crappie jokes.

Forget about the crappie, don't be scared by any strange beaver!

this pond looks like the one thats 3 minutes from my house. if im certain thats it, you are guaranteed fish every time, its non-stop multi species all year long. always release you catch, that place has been getting lots of pressure over the past 2 years and it hasnt been as good as it was years before that.
