Nice mixed bag. I had a nice Yellow Perch wack my big spinnerbait a few weeks ago at 2 Bridges too. There's probably a nice population of them, but who targets them lol.

Might just be a secret pike livebait!!!! I knew a guy who used to use them for giant smallies in upstate NY!!!!!

I was thinking about putting a hook in him and droppin him right back down. That stretch of river always has me very confused though. Do you guys paddle up into the great piece meadows at all and how do you do? Also what's the deal with the private property signs in the river saying no fishing?
