    Details: Northern Pike with a New spot for pike and bass

    Does anyone know any good spots for pike and bass? Preferably along the Passaic. I usually go behind Kennedy High but the fishing is slow. The water us also full ...more of snags and I even saw people smoking pot not 100 yards from where I was fishing. Any way. Any info would help.

      ..the adipose fin (small fin on back near the tail). With stocked fish, the tail fins are normally worn down and the adipose fin is clipped for identity

      @Rickreelin83 the hooked jaw also known as a kype is what the male trout get when they reach breeding age I think @wyldechylde77

      what's up @wyldechylde77 long time no talk ...I thought the hooked jaw represented a native fish?
    8. Chuck LaBruna 0
      @Rickreelin83 It's not a native, it's most definitely a stocker. Worn down tail fins and missing adipose fin are a dead giveaway. Still, stocker or not it's ...more a great Rainbow
