It ain't over yet, still got the crazy fall jig bite, but here are some highlights of my year and some of the better fish:
-Being on the ice first week of January wacking Pike and Pickerel
-First ever Passaic River Pike through the ice
-Huge 30" Channel Cat jigged through the ice
-Conquering Monksville with many multiple Walleye trips
-Another kickass spring night bite

GREAT fish!!! HOLY SMOKES, THAT A BIG ASS BLUE.

[CabesaRoja]

This year has been amazing for me in terms of new experiences:

-First solid year of ice fishing, nothing big but I finally learned how to jig to a great amount of success

-First year of solid trout fishing, I was finally able to make many trips down to the Ramapo and really hone down my trout fishing skills on the river

-First year trying to catch pike, after making 5-6 trips on the Passaic, I finally landed my first ever pike, and I've been able to hone my skills to the point where I've probably landed at least 50 pike this year, and set my PB at a respectable 30".

-First lake trout- Didn't include the pic (Didn't come out too well) but it was 22" and caught out of Lake George while taking a charter. Probably going to go out for them one last time this year to try for them on my own.

-First year attempting salmon fishing- Went to Pulaski for 2 separate days having no experience with salmon. By the end of the two trips, I had hooked up multiple times and was able to feel my first battle with a salmon! Unfortunately did not get to land any fish though.

Along with all my firsts, managed to have one of my best years bass fishing, with 2 bass over 5lbs (Only got pic of one) and plenty over 3.

Overall, I've explored and successfully fished around 9 new bodies of water this year, ranging from the Salmon River in Pulaski to Lake Flower in Saranac Lake to Pompton Lake and the Passaic River. I think it might be safe to say that in this year alone I've nearly doubled my fishing knowledge. I've had a blast this year and I'm hoping that it hasn't ended just yet!

**Sorry about the upside-down pics, I've tried the best I can to flip them over but everything I've tried isn't working haha

[Chrisper4694]

well as Rob said already, it's not even close to over yet! I don't know if anyone remembers my crazy goal but i wanted one skillful angler sized fish of every fw species...i failed that pretty early when i couldn't get a shad quite big enough (got close though, and it was my first time fishing for them). I still wanted to see how many i could get and I really think the goal in the back of my mind helped me have, hands down, my best year fishing! (and it's not even over yet!) I also can't say enough for this site and all the guys that contribute; I definitely wouldn't have done quite as well with out some of you (I hope i've been able to give back some as well). I spent a bit too much time saltwater fishing :rolleyes: but here's some of my best from the year so far!

That drum is a monster! Congrats everyone on some great fish!

[JDTuna]

First and foremost, I am very happy that I began participating in njfishing freshwater forum in 2015. This site is a community full of great people and it has been a blast sharing fishing reports, stories, tips etc. I have learned a lot from the fishermen on the site. I look forward to participating in the future!

I didn't end up doing as much saltwater fishing as I usually do, but I had quite a few trips in NJ and Massachusetts and did really well with the stripers and tuna. I was fortunate to be able to fish a wide open topwater bite on striped bass from 18 to 34lbs. The tuna fishing was great as well.

On the freshwater side of things, I spent most of my time on the sweetwater chasing northern pike on the Passaic. My goal for the year was to break the 40" mark. While I didn't meet that mark, I caught a lot of fish from 30-34", and quite a few over 35" with biggest measuring between 37 and 38". I learned a lot about pike fishing on this particular river and the species has become one of my favorites in freshwater.

http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k320/JL1981/Big%20Pike%208.29.15_zpsrww3ggtt.jpg

While I didn't meet my pike goal, I did manage to catch my first musky (from a kayak), and the 25lbs class fish smashed the 40" mark.

In addition to those species, I managed to catch my pb brown trout, lots of smallmouth, pickerel and a few landlocked salmon in Maine, carp and wild brown trout. All in all a good year so far. Looking forward to 2016!

[Bruce Litton]

Hope this works. Lost a hybrid a lot bigger. Never got a largemouth over 3 1/2, but lots that size. The steelhead was about 4...wasn't a year for big fish like last, but like every year, a time to remember. And there's still a month-and-a-half....

[Esox Luciano]

NJF at it finest...I luv this crazy state!! Great looking fish and scenery pics fellaz! This state is pretty picturesque once you're away from the car fumes. Waiting for G to post coordinates from said pics so we can all enjoy it 1st hand, Lmao! J/P man, great looking ground you cover!!
So to start it off, anytime you're ice fishing is memorable! Caught some fish here, skunked out there, but always a great experience. My 1 & only spotted muskie I caught on homemade ice trap, also a decent bass.

2015 I didn't get put as much as I would of liked, but when I did get out I had great success for the most part. Some highlights was my pb walleye, my first lake trout in new York plus new jersey through the ice. After ice thawed we had some great local bow fishing including a 2nd place finish in the local Delaware river tournament. Had an amazing trip to south Louisiana limiting out on redfish just about every night as well as shooting plenty of gator gar including a 6ft shortness gar, black drum, sheepshead, mullet, stingrays, carp, buffalo, and needle fish. Met great guys from across the country and won the southern Louisiana marsh madness tournament. In the Chesapeake I shot an amazing piebald cownose ray as well as my personal best st 48lbs. Made my first land based shark trip and was rewarded with a 7ft+ sand tiger. Went out with a friend and trolled up my first open water laker. Made a suicide run up to new York when the first few salmon started to appear and hooked several and landed one with no crowds. Tough striper, fluke and and blackish trips but overall a great year with great friends

Phenomenal pictures man, looks like you had a STELLAR year!

PS: How big was that Walleye??!!

[Hooked4Life]

Hey fellas,

Figured I'd add to the collection...sorry for the selfies(lots of solo trips) Year's best Larry went 4lb 9oz, best smallie 3lb 8oz...all fish C&R. All and all a good year...feel like I learned a lot. Got to understand my FFinder better, became more consistent on my go to lakes and added some new favorite lures and techniques to the arsenal. Next year gonna try to push myself to fish more unfamiliar territory in search of all-time PB. Consistency's great but we all want that storybook Hog!

Gonna be a long winter. Got to find a winter sport so I don't go crazy and my wife don't kick me out. Reorganizing my tackle box every week gets a bit old.

Thanks for all the helpful insights NJF!

Great pics Rich! Some rather large BUCKETMOUTH's!!! AWESOME!!!:D

[Rich196]

Ed, Thank you, I have to hook up with you guy's so you can show me how to catch those big hybrids. :D

[iamtheavalanche]

2015 for me was the year of the Smallmouth Bass. Probably my favorite fish to catch and to admire they are awesome creatures! The thing about fishing is you always observe and learn something new each time out. If you ever see me on the South Branch don't be shy to say Hi! Happy New Year!

I share your passion for the river Smallies no doubt. They are as tough as anything out there. Fighting floods and turbulent waters make them ridiculously strong. I didn't spend enough time going after them this year but hopefully next year I'll be back on em. Really nice fish man. All big beautiful bruiser Smallies. Thanx for posting some great pics!:D

[AndyS]

All I can say is WOW !! Thanx for posting !
