January catfish
Bought another container of 30 red worms at Walmart for $3.76, then went ultralight jigging in 44 degrees Central Jersey lake this afternoon on a cold, sunny day with a light southwest wind. Air temp was only 42 degrees. Saw > 20 fishermen catch and release perch and crappies while ultralight jigging small lures. I caught and released 37 white perch including 3 doubles, 2 yellow perch and a brown bullhead with Walmart red worm halves on 2 gold hooks and a 1/16 oz unpainted leadhead jig on 4 lb test line. Landed the catfish on my last cast of the night. Fish were swirling. Landed 203 fish in 5 NJ freshwater fishing trips this year. Cold weather fishing is torture, not fun.
