5.5 lb lake corn 🌽 catfish

[NJ219bands]

Went fishing 🎣 in 82.7 degrees Gropp’s Lake this evening on a warm, sunny day with a light north wind. Saw 10 people including an illegal kayaker. Mosquitoes 🦟 were biting. I killed 5. Threw out canned, whole kernel corn 🌽 for chum, then caught nothing while ultralight jigging. Caught and released a 24” 5 lb 8 oz channel catfish, redeared slider and musk turtle 🐢 with corn 🌽 bait. Landed 49 turtles 🐢 this year.
