Caught 18 fish 🎣 with a green lure on St Patrick’s Day

[NJ219bands]

Went ultralight jigging in a 60 degree pond across the street from the Trenton Sewage Plant this evening on a warm, cloudy day with a strong west wind. Smelled like excrement. Nobody will go fishing there. Found a dead feral goldfish floating on the pond. Caught and released 10 black crappies to 9”, 5 bluegills to 8” and 3 male yellow perch to 10” with a 1/32 oz green twister tail jig on 2 lb test line. Two beavers 🦫 were nearby. Took pictures and made a video. Saw a bowfin bigger than the state record Saturday evening but it’s too big for my 2 lb test line. Looks like 60 degrees is the magic number for good ultralight jigging. https://youtube.com/shorts/ZN7O5n_V90w?si=a8GhzFgFmlGgE1Bj
