Because the season is slowly coming to an end in just a few more weeks.....Hit the sheds w/ noneotherthan fellow BassNJ member JayDBee for a day of New Jersey fall fishing --North Jersey Style.....The morning hit was a little disappointing as no decent fish worth pictures for quite some time....Finally after throwing everything trying to figure these picky feeders out(the normal stuff was not working) the bite got going about 11:30 and it was pretty steady for the next few hours....Larry, Sammy,Snot Rockets and Perch all made appearances today....We both missed a few really decent fish but managed to get @ 15 in the boat between us......Traps,Jerkbaits,Drop Shot,Cranks worked but it took alot of patience today.........Not the usual for this time of year for sure.....It was a great day on the water in the end...Always a good time and great learning and conversation with John.....Oh and we saw a bear as we were on the way back to the launch....Here's a few of the fun moments.....Food on board included Roast Beef and Swiss Cheese Sandwiches on Semolina Bread, Coffee, Power Bars,hard Boiled eggs,Iced Tea, and Sugar Free Fruit Punch.....Thanks for looking.....Here's a few to prove it really happenned

.....

Good report Mitch. Nice pickerel.

Thanks Dwight...I'm trying to get a Smallmouth like the one in your profile pic for years.......Have a great weekend!!!.....FISH ON!!!

Good pics of healthy looking smallmouth!

It's gotta be satisfying after determining "the normal stuff isn't working" to figure out what was working.

Some good fish right there.

Typical fall bite though, usually a little better as the day progresses.

Sweet scenery photos as well.

Most do not equate that kind of landscape with New Jersey -

Spent some years there myself, so I know better.

Nice Job

A-Jay
