Good Friday, TIDAL BREEDER BROWN!!!

[FASTEDDIE29]

WOW, WOW, WOW!!! So I hit river today in search of well, anything that wanted to bite. Started off throwing Swim Shads and on the first cast hooked into a good fish that unfortunately came unbuttoned. Oh well, keep on chuckin! So about 2 hours pass and I'm still casting a variety of plugs mostly big stuff. At this time I have on one of my favorites, Yellow, black school bus BOMBER. It gets railed and I'm fired up to see whats on the end of my line. It's comes in slow at first but as I get the fish closer it starts jumping out of the TIDAL water. I see you Mr. Fish, what the hell are you doing here Mr. BROWN TROUT??? I was really fired up once I landed this 23 inch beautiful BROWN. I was yelling like a little kid in a toy store. What an interesting day! HOLY S#*T!!! Here's a few pics of possibly the last breeder BROWN in NJ, LOL!!!

GOOD FRIDAY!!!
TIGHT LINEZ!!!

Nice. Looks like a small stockie that grew up about 10" in the salt. Most of the fins grew back but the tail is still blunted.

Haha! Nice Catch!

You should superimpose those pics in interesting places like 6 flags, in front of the famous landmarks, or with Native Americans chasing you!

If it was caught where the diseased trout were released a place I know Eddie knows from his youth it would be a very exciting thing and hopefully the state would do what they did again
Odds are its a Raritan fish
