NJ Wild Trout Slam (10/23/16)

[JDTuna]

With the high winds forecasted for Sunday, Chrisper and I decided to chase some of NJ'S beautiful wild trout. The day started out a little slow, but the action pickef up nicely and by the end of the day we ended up with double digit numbers of feisty wild trout. In addition, we had a NJ Wild Trout Slam, catching wild brown, wild brook and wild rainbow trout. In addition, I ended up catching my personal best wild brown trout. We saw an even bigger fish, but it wouldn't cooperate. All in all a great day fishing.

When they get dark (pic2) does that mean spawn mode? I know the jaw, have gotten one like that , and wasn't sure

Great job boys!

Oooooofa! Those are some pretty NJ Trout! Amazing colors! Phenom PB Tuna man! I always wonder what kind of pain they experience when the creeks and streams flood! They hold up in crazy places and have super strength for sure!:D

Chrisper would catch bigger trout if he wore his big hat.
The baseball cap and the beanie just don't draw the fish like his wide brim hat.

I'm still shocked that that's in nj.beautiful fish guys. I wish I knew one of these wild trout streams in NJ. Maybe I'll stumble upon one one day :)

[Chrisper4694]

you'd be surprised what you find. if you see a stream or river that doesn't look like much, go touch the water, if it feels cool it might have some wild trout in it!
