Wawayanda salmon hunt
I fished for the elusive Nj salmon yesterday on Wawayanda. Had most of the tip-ups set 4 ft under the ice in 30-50 ft of water. I know where all the salmon went- the monster pickerel ate them up for sure! Was fishing 8lb floro leaders and lost most to snip offs at the hole. We did catch a 14 in rainbow on green power bait on our only non-shiner trap...the trout had a monster shiner in its stomach with no hook marks in it....then the final insult/ when picking up to go a polar tip-up had its flag frozen to ice- 1/3 of spool out with a scaled shiner and no scuff on leaded. Silver sucker flipping me the goodbye fin....till next time..
