Clifford -I see you're from Virginia . Do you have Chain Pickerel ,Grass Pickerel and Red fin Pickerel there? I only catch chain Piks up here in NJ. I saw what I thought could be a Redfin Pickerel once but didn't have a pole.

Pickerel fishing is cool, and lots of opts in many areas that most don't fool with. I just got back from a father/son trip from Richmond Mill and Matt and I both landed our best ever pickerel...his was 23 inches and mine was 25. We had another at 24 inches. I got the 25 on a 1/32 oz hairjig and 2-pound test fishing for bluegills! Crazy!

I've gotten them up to maybe 16" on small jigs at Shepherd lake while fishin' for gills,but my 20" and over come on Spoons ,Cranks, and Jersey Rigg and Yum worms. Live Shiners on tipups thru the ice. .
