I know while bowfishing we see a lot of pike some nights none other nights we lose count and have seen several over 40" one in particular that lived in the mouth of one of the creeks was easily 45" and over 20lbs, we saw her several times two summers ago. So I wouldn't bet against Sr holding a good population and some big fish

True, very true! I've seen some very long fish caught out of SR! The up and down water levels in recent years have obviously had an effect on the trap nets as well! Water level is a serious issue in NJ these days! Drives me crazy! I must add that the Pike I've caught and have seen caught out if SR always seem ratty and thin! Strange coming out of a place that has a healthy Herring population!
