Default lakes and swamps (pike-pickerel hybrid?)

Nick and I with some cool catches.

A few outtings last couple of weeks on the lake got us some larrys, smallies, slab crappies (both with some under 14 inches) and pickerel.









Then this weekend a float through the swamp-river and we got some nice pike, best going +30 inches but unfortunately i let him slip before a photo.

We ran into almost every species, perch, bluegill, pickerel, pike, bullhead, lmb, and smb. nearly hitting the NJ SWAMP SLAM but we never found a crappie.

Other noteworthy catches;

A chunky 16 inch SMB, my biggest out of this river.

a pike-pickerel hybrid (?); looking for input on this, never saw one before, is it a hybrid? it fought the wildest out of any fish the whole day. jumped and flipped clean out of the air twice like a tarpon.

Nick caught a 14 inch bullhead, dragging a jig on the bottom looking for crappie.
