Wanaque river Crappie

Do you love big bluegill?
A small one...
After three days of non-stop catching, you hope one this size gets off before you have to use a sore thumb to lift it.

Greg- Your right, such a misery! Las time Lisa and I went we wrapped our thumbs in duck tape on the third day of an eight day trip. I can hack it though!
John- It's hard to beat a scrappie Smallmouth. They have the prettiest markings up there in Canada.
John (other John)- We were in Ontarion on that trip. We ran up the Little Canoe river and portaged through two lakes to a spot on Lake Strong. A bit of work to get there but well worth the effort.
