Mixed Bag Saturday (9/8/18): Browns, bows, pike

[JDTuna]

Took a bit of a drive Sat morning with Chrisper and our good buddy Mark looking for some trout. Got to the spot and conditions were far from optimal. I still managed a few wild browns and a beautiful wild rainbow trout.

Got back to NJ around noon and decided to switch gears and hit some pike spots. The first fish I caught was a very thick monster 36+ inches. Continued fishing for a bit and caught four more pike before I called it a day.
