3 NJWW Members have a Shad beat-down

Met Hammer4reel, and OMC at the Big "D" tonight, along with a few of my other hardcore shad fishing buddies.  We spread out in a proven section N of the water gap and gave it hell.  I lost count at 15, and that was before my first hour and I fished just over 3 hours at the same pace,  quitting around 7:45, so  it was a lot of fish. I got there first, then Mike and his son showed up and started hitting them good, then Dan showed up around 5:30 and he got a solid 2 hours of good catching in.   The photo was supposed to be Dan hooked up, but as the cameraman was about to take the picture, the shad got off.

 

"Mako" also had his usual fun, doing about 50 or so duck retrieves...

 

There was big-game aplenty on dusk ride home. I nearly hit two bears just past parking lot, and Dan saw a bunch of deer on his ride out..

Was def a good time , even if I was soaked from the waist down .

Can't be deep enough to just about tip the hip boots and bend down to lift the fish lol

Nice seeing the shad plentiful again

Ok but I have to blindfold you - super, top secret spot... There can be no spot burning allowed on NJWW...

No such thing as a secret spot in nj..

I posted asking where that trout stream was and i had guys calling me within an hour to tell me how i gave up the spot by asking online.

 

Last year I posted photos of a bear in a cornfield and I had guys calling me to not mention the area the picture came from..

 

I'm an open book with my spots-but when it's other guys spots I'll do as you wish. Your secret is safe with me. I'm not much of a fisherman anyhow.. just like to go 1 or 2 times a yr.. last year or 2 I didn't go at all.

Jack thanks again for the heads up that the run had started I normally don't start for a couple of weeks. Great evening of catching that's for sure both my son and I had a blast. Dan I even got wet with chest waders on lol. When we were driving home my son said why even fish for trout when you can catch shad. Going to get out again soon but bringing the fly rod also. Great time with some great guys.
