Ended up fishing in the woods of Malaga lake in south jersey because of all the fathers day crowds and ended with this monster along with about 4 other smaller pickerel
The pic is kinda crappy because he was 1 angry s.o.b. and didn't want to hold him any longer than I had to. Managed to get the tape next to him though and he was a hair over 20 inches, personal beat by a few inches. Very chunky too, put up 1 heck of a fight.
