Smallies in the streams

[thmyorke1]

Went to a tributary of the North Branch Raritan yesterday after work. Good fishing all evening. I wished it stayed light till 830 year round :P

Plenty of ~9inch smb that fight like hell.

Water was stained and just a bit high.

Endpoint of my wading was a nice hole where i got a few small bass, a big red sucker which i thought was a rainbow. Weird how these fight, hooked it outside it's lip. then a nice 16 inch bass. Thing tugged around with passion.

Surprised i haven't caught a single trout yet since opening day, figured one would turn up as im only using 3 inch grubs on a small jig. Oh well, more BRONZE will do
