Thumbs up Raritan Float Trip, Skunks 1st Tiger 9/7

Met with SkunkCity and JimmyMas at Blaklite park this afternoon to do a float trip, loaded up the yaks and launched from the SBB falls. Myself and Jimmy managed to hook up with some Smallies and Largies but nothing huge. We saw massive schools of Carp and I'm pretty sure I saw a trout swimming behind them. Action was lite for the most part. We head down river and I see Skunk in the distance hooked up, TIGER MUSKY he yells. Me and Jimmy rush down to help him land his first ever TIGER, approximately 33 inches. He was stoked!!!!! Had a little riverside celebration in honor of Rob's first Tiger. Great job getting him in on 6 lb test buddy. This fish was caught on a Walleye jig!!!! AWESOME!!!!! Kept fishing and got down past Queens Bridge to find flat water with little structure. Beautiful day on the river with great people. Weather was good, beers were cold and a couple fish were caught. Thanx for coming out guys! I'll do it again anytime. Will post a pic of SkunkCitys TIGER as soon as my daughter gives me my laptop.

TIGHT LINEZ!!!!!

No Doubt it was a beautiful day on the river with some reel good fishermen. Rob definitely stole the show. Beast Tiger! We'll have to do the lower half soon. Leafs will be falling soon so maybe after the leafs are down. Good Times thanks!

Nicee fish..Id like to see a healthy population of tigers start to develop..I been hitting the Raritan the past 2 weeks hittin em' good some days.. 2 Raritan PB wit a 4- 4.5 LB smallie rite at dark that I really thought was 5+ easy..N 24.5 in. Eye.. killin the Eyes when they turn on.. went 5/6 and a baby striper.. then 3/4 on eyes w/ my PB being one of them.. N the PB smallie 10 mins later..Sick!! THEN.. Saw a slob smallie chase a smaller one..like 4 foot up the falls in the white water.. spin around an head back down.. When they hit the water again huge splash pretty sure he naild em' soon as the one hit the solw stuff..just crazy rite next to you!!! Im planning on hittin it at dark again Got 1 7-8 in creek chub for a giant.. smallest of all the eyes I got was prob 18-20 most r low20's..HMU if ur tryin to go n all fish are still swimming...........
