I hiked up to the waterfall at the top of Longwood Lake and had one of the most unexpected fishing sessions of the season. In just a short time, I managed to catch both the smallest fish I’ve ever landed (completely by accident) and my first chain pickerel, which also turned out to be the longest fish of my year!

To top it off, I hooked into two solid largemouth bass, each over 14 inches, all on a 3/8 oz silver blade Rooster Tail

📍 Location: New Jersey
