Just took a ride over to two bridges to scope it out, within two minutes saw what looked like a monster cat skulking around under the bridge, definitly going to try and hit it tomorrow night. Thanks again for the tip!

the bullhead is the catfish that's native to our area and you'll find them in most bodies of water. ~12" is a pretty typical size but they can get a lot bigger. http://www.state.nj.us/dep/fgw/fish_bullhead.htm

to target bigger fish you probably want to be going after channel cats at one of the places the state puts them in
http://www.state.nj.us/dep/fgw/fish_ch_cat.htm

here's the full list of places they stocked for channels last year

good luck out there!
