Pickerel Are Suckers

[Catch 22]

I couldn`t do much with any other species today,but the pickerel were on.

53 deg wt,clear, calm wind.The snot rockets were suckers for a nose hooked 5" pearl super fluke twitched moderately.

I nicked 8 of them about 18" to 22"  in a 40 minute  session.

The east wind kicked up and the line bow messed up the sink/twitch pattern.

One chunk lmb ate an LC 78.

I do not mind catching these fish at all, well maybe when they break off an expensive crank.

I love catching pickerel and that is a pretty epic 40min of fishing!

Nice work!! Did you see the MD state record a while back? I saw these cranks for sale on-line and thought you would get a kick out of them! Snot Rocket swimbaits!!

Hi Chris,yes I believe it was right at 8 lbs

Ha ha they look like the real thing.

I did some more damage with the fluke today.

One pike had 2 large crawdads inside .

Fished for Pickerel over the weekend and we were killing them on inline spinners.  We must have got about 100 between the 7 of us.  It was a great time!  First time fishing for them, and i will differently be fishing for them more now.  We also got a couple two pound bass so that just made the day better.
