Talking Raritan River 3/18

Hit the river from 10:30-1230. Had a little time to kill so I wanted to see if the shad were in yet, didnt see any around. Started throwing the original Rapala, black and silver, hooked 6 fish all bass 1 LM the rest Smallies. If I had a net I would have joined Bronzebacks 5lb Smallie club. This fish was approximately 24 inches. I had him within arms reach and he jumped and swam back to the depths. Oh well, get em next time!!! I hate losing TROPHY fish!!! Heres a couple pics. TIGHT LINES!!!

Guess I was fishing the wrong stretch of river. I was chucking a Rapala on the Raritan on Saturday and got the skunk. Beautiful fish!
