A couple Walleye and an interesting find..
 
Got out in The Mugger on Tuesday for about an hour with ScowardNJ. Left work around 2:30, in the boat by 3:00. Found a couple willing Walleye, one at 17" and one at 20". Second fish came just as the rain started around 4:15, so we called it quits. Filleted the keeper with a buddy shortly after. As I checked the stomach contents, I was surprised to find it completely empty. Fish was chubby though, so further inspection revealed two Twinkie-sized pouches filled with eggs! From my understanding, Walleye will not spawn until March/April. Pretty interesting. Pics to prove it happened.]

That's good work for an hour..Nicely Done!

Wonder what the full of eggs thing is all about? I'm sure someone on this site will know....always get an explanation from the knowledge base on this site. One of the great things about NJF.

A buddy suggested I forward it to F&W, which I'll do unless Mark B. chimes in.

Good job boyz, way to jig em up.......from what I know the eggs start developing in early winter and they dont mature until february, males pulled thru the ice in jan are already squirting their love juice.
