Hit the Pohatcong creek this morning to do some Troutin'! Nobody on the creek and plenty of fish to be caught. The usual Rainblow Trout were feeding but acting a bit sluggish due to the cold front that moved in last night. Then this beast fell for the dreaded
"PLUG!!!" What a battle and aerial show this fish put on! She was up and down the river 3-4 times and then went under a root system, sheeeeeeshhhhh! Im not sure how I got her out of there. Fish measured 20 inches on the nose and super thin. Nice long full fins with white tips, not much in her caved in belly at all. I tried to give this skinny Trout a dark chocolate Milano cookie but she wasn't in the mood I guess, LOL! Beautiful day to be out and about!
P.S. There are a ton of Trout in the rivers right now. Just gotta pick the right one to fish.
Musky- running high and super stained.
SB- running a tad high and tea colored but manageable.
SR creek- perfect.
Mulhockaway creek- perfect.
Delaware river- super dirty and unfishable.
TIGHT LINEZ!!!
This pic shows the length a little better!
