Twelve Mile Lake Near Minden

[mukluk]

My neighbour just returned home with northern pike he found washed up on his beach. He was not sure if it was a musky or a pike. The pike measured 44 inches; weight about 16lbs. approx. No visable injuries or marks on the fish. Question is;Has anyone caught a pike in Twelve Mile Lake before? I have fished the lake many years . It has been mainly a lake trout and smallie lake. Came as a surprise to me how it got into the lake in the first place.

That's news to me for sure. It has a reputation as a SM and laker lake. Pike do seem to be moving into some of the lakes in this area....no idea how or why but it probably doesn't bode well for the musky.

I was on 12 mile lake from 85 to 99. While I was there the odd small musky was caught, usually in adjoining Boshkung Lake coming from the Maple-Grass chain through the Beech river. A couple years after we left there was an article in the local news about a large pike caught in Little Boshkunng. I also heard that there are some pike in Kushog Lk that also runs into Boshkung.
