Wranglin` those Toothy Critters up with a Fly-Rod in my `Yak!

A little different twist on Pike fishin` fellas; try chasin` Northern Pike in the Passaic River, with a Fly-Rod while fishin` in a `Yak!

If ya think it`s easy, ya might wanna think again...... Just try navigating around blown-down trees/brush, paddlin` a `Yak in a current AND work a fly-rod while sittin` on your ass all at once.........Quite challenging indeed.

But I got `er done

Then got out the next day for a couple hours and nailed this lil` Gator with a Chatterbait

Sweet tooths! Fly fishing on that river must have been a chore.

Hahaha! That's pretty sick! Catching the fish with teeth on the fly has to be exhilarating! Way to GIT-R-DONE Ken! Beautiful toothy specimens! Bet that drag was ripping out pretty good once they realized they were hooked!!!

YEA BUDDY!!!:D

now that's impressive ken, how are you casting a chatterbait on a fly rod if i tried that my rod would be bent down from the weight. what weight class is your rod and what size is your leader? nice pike as well.
