The Nip 2/21. Pin Largemouth, And Mystery Pickerel?
My buddy and I went out on the nip yesterday. The flags were flying, and the fish were biting. got 3 pickerel, all fairly good size, and one strange looking pickerel, kinda looked like a cross breed. I have caught something similar a few years back off the boat ramp of the Nip as well. if i had to guess, it looks like a red fin pickerel. I included a picture of the ice fish and a close up of the boat ramp fish as well. For bass, we got a one pounder, a two pounder, a three pounder, and a four pounder. The 2 pounder was caught on a lindy darter. I included pictures of the three and four pounder. the four pounder was 21 inches, and I just sent in the paperwork to mass.gov for their new catch and release sport fishing award pins. The trip overall was a huge success, it was tough going getting out to the spot, but the ice was around 12-14 inches thick throughout the lake.
