Topwater Striper...again..in Johnson's pond

[RavensDfense]

I've been ignoring my backyard fishery recently. Since I am now broke from fishing in VA the past several weekends I have turned my focus back to the ol' pond. Turns out, the top water bite isn't too bad. The more I fish this place the more convinced I am there is a larger number of stripers here than people think. Caught these in about 15 minutes.

Nice Linksider and Linesider! Its a rare treat to get those two types of fish in the same place at the same time...

Nice Northern Pike, I didn't even know there were any in Maryland. Are there any in the bay or tributaries? Would love to catch some again.

Thats a Chain Pickerel a small cousin of the Northern Pike. You can catch them in many of the tributaries of the rivers that feed into the bay, but generally its more of a winter fishery.
