southjerseyangler Finally got back here, took JJ with me, fished for 1/2 hour - no bites. Walked towards a cabin and there were some little coves around there. We spooked a few fish, so we knew we found where they were. I hooked a BEAST, said " i got him " and gave the pole to JJ so he could feel the fight. He got him to the shore, but couldn't lift him onland. This is the 2nd pickerel that i got this year that was hoagie sized around -
