Default Re: Pickerel

One of the best early spring fish to catch. They love the cooler water, are aggressive, and FIGHT. I usually convert a treble hook to a single hook by cutting the two extra hooks to aid in release. Skipping a super fluke across an emerging lilly pad can garner multiple exciting strikes and a few hook ups...mostly just exciting strikes which are way too

Pickerel...one of my favorite game fish on light tackle...just have pliers for handling...freshwater bluefish
