Great Piece Pike

[njbassman]

Found a new spot on the PR with no human activity but lots of aquatic and bird species... left the canoe home and hiked into the Great Piece Meadow in fairfield... loads of shoreline to investigate... recommend long pants to fend off the PI which is EVERYWHERE... "Caught" and released 2 nice pike and a dinky Lm in about an hour before sunset....

The The public is welcome to hike and fish on the preserve. Due to binding management agreements, general public hunting is not permitted

I've kayaked through there many times and never had any issues. There are a few sporatic No Trespassing signs, but its so quiet in there I've never been confronted by anyone from the state. Never had much luck deep in there though...

Ive been deep into the Peace Meadows as well and although it looks ideal for fishing I have never had any good success either....

So why didn't you turn around when you saw the signs?
