Northern Pike 5/2-5/3

[msgdan]

I hope I am wrong, but the river pike fishing is way off this year so far. I hit the river yesterday afternoon after a great morning of striper fishing in Raritan bay with the kayak. I hit an area that last year, almost the same date and had 15 pike up to 36 inches. Yesterday, I had one 16 inch pike for almost 2 hours.

The water was a strange color and just didn't look good.

I am hoping it picks up and gets better.
