Thanks! We are in the same boat. Lol. 2 huge NJ fish that stirred people's imagination. I used to fish that area of the river years back but never landed a pike. Hooked a giant but lost it. I see that our stories bring more and more fisherman to this forum and I love it. One day I hope to meet you in person and shake your hand. Quite a feat to land such a nice fish from the shore. You are a better COnservationist than I am though since you released yours and I decided to keep mine

That being said. I know 1st hand that it wouldn't feel soo good at the top, if it didn't feel soo crappie at the bottom!
THAT being said, I'd like to give a shout out to LENNYSKY!! Another freshwater MONSTER FISHERMAN, who stirred the pot!
I'm deeeply humble, to my river, for this fish.
The title WILL REMAIN, until I see bigger.
The offer still stands as well: I WILL BE ACCEPTING ALL CONTENDERS VIA PM....GET@ME!!! http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PmFJtt67C1Y#
