That must of been a great fight! Nice fish!

Absolutely Mr. Jim, I had my hip boots on and was fishing near a line of reeds, he hit, i set the hook, and he took off, it was getting dark, after a couple of runs he tired and I started guiding him around the reeds, i looked down real quick and saw the head, started backing up, at first glance it looked like a baby gator, it was pretty cool.

Thats a big one. I haven't seen one that big around here. I fish one pond that has so many jackfish (chain pickerel) in it that I have to use a leader because I got my line cut too much. The biggest one I've caught was only around 2 pounds though.

 

[shamoo]

Yes Mr. Fishin NJ, thats the same one from that night we were all down at the mighty Oak :lol:

Mr. 317 a 2lb pick. is a decent fish my friend

You never know these days....People buy these exotic animals then when they get too big, they dump them in ponds, and lakes. :shock:

My buddy caught a red belly piranha in the Charles River!

A true Piney would cut off part of the collar as well

Very Nice Fish - thanks for posting the cool pick pic

 

[nicdicarlo]

Nice shamoo, that thing is a beast. When they get that big they start to look like Northerns. I love pickerel

 

[shamoo]

Mr. fishhog, like Fishin NJ stated, everything I catch goes right back into the drink so another angler can have their turn at trying to catch it. I've had my fun, someone elses turn. :wink:
