Hello-
I figured I would introduce myself to this forum, I have been lurking here for the past year and have learned alot about fishing for species other than bass. I have gotten everything from shad in the raritan (released) and large trout in the raritan to muskies up in furnace lake.
I see a bunch of posts about fishing the Passaic for pike and I want to say they are not only up near Paterson but throughout the entire river. I have been getting them down here in Warren (Somerset County) since April. I believe these would have migrated up from Chatham. I caught a small guy while getting lunch today, and I got larger ones up to 30" back on opening day in April. I also saw smaller ones (4-6") along the banks of the Passaic river as well today.
What kind of bait do you guys use for pike? I have been getting them on cheapo wal-mart $2 dollar lures.
Anyway, I look forward to talking about fishing with you guys.
