Bowfin

About 6-7 bowfin in an hour of fishing. One of the best fighting fish I ever caught. The bait of choice was shiners cut in chunks.

I don't think we have many Bowfin in New Jersey.
I know I never caught anything that looks like that.

I checked their range map and it looks like they don't live around me.

Used to catch them on the Little Pee Dee River behind Myrtle Beach AFB in South Carolina. Extremely powerful fish that could spool you.

My all time favorite fish to target! My spot got wiped out because people thought they were killing snakehead.
