There is a website im going to try to find and post for you. Its all about them in jersey waters. Even maps and locations of where they were caught. Think its Bowfinhunters or something like that.

I caught and released a male bowfin 4/13/2015 on a 1/32 oz jig and 2 lb test line in the secret spot. Check out my pics on //www.bowfinanglers.com

I saw another angler with one 2 years ago at Wayway. He told me it was a catfish . Looking a little closer it was no catfish. He didn't reveal any info and probably didn't know what it was.
