Pike float

[thmyorke1]

Captain Nick guided me through the passaic last sunday. He put me on the gravy and action was sweet all day. Some serious slams on a 4-5 inch paddle tail swimbait fished high in the water column, and some 8 inch largemouth bass to go around for both of us. Nick was also pulling large yellow perch left and right on jigs.
Portages and squeezing the canoe through timber were pretty tough in one stretch. But the stretch was still worth the action.

In total we only did a few miles, I lost a nice one at the end, and Nick spotted a nice 30 in shallow water.








Every lmb we caught was the same size; chunky, well fed, but short. Wonder where the big ones are.
We didnt take any pictures of the lmb so I did some photographic-investigations myself and walked the banks of the passaic tonight, just 1 min away from home.
In the mix of it, caught some pike and a nice chain pickerel.
