CG_Fishes Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 As mentioned in my post in the got 'em section, I caught my 3 biggest Chain Pickerel ever during a bass tournament this weekend. The fish were postspawn sitting in 1-3' of water and FIRED up. In the right spots going 2 or 3 casts without a pickerel was uncommon, with all fish being 20" or bigger. My 3 biggest (in order of pictures) were 26", 25" and 25". Although often a nuisance for bass fisherman, and slightly annoying yesterday, I love these fish with all my heart. And am planning a trip back in the kayak later this week to capitalize on this bite. I did have one fish slice my finger up pretty bad, hence the electrical tape and tissue wrapped around it you can see in the first picture, tit for tat I guess. manansalsa, JustBassinAround916, NorthernBass4L and 11 others 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lux036 Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 Looks like some good top water fishing weather. A little chop and some fun aggressive fish to catch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
