BassAsin Posted December 19, 2008 Report Posted December 19, 2008 went out to a little lake other than my favourite today always good for a feast of perch and some pike ended up with a bunch of good perch 3 pike and a small wallie too! didnt know they were in there. i know your all saying i should have let the pig go but she was caught pretty good in the gills and i didnt think she would have made it!
pike slayer Posted December 19, 2008 Report Posted December 19, 2008 im pretty sure the pike your holding isnt the one in the other pics. what was the size of the pike laying on the ice?
BassAsin Posted December 19, 2008 Author Report Posted December 19, 2008 one on the ice was 36 inches about 13-15 lbs it was taken just before dark when we were leaving and no flash on the cell phone camera. the other might of git the 24 inch mark
Leecher Posted December 19, 2008 Report Posted December 19, 2008 Great report and pics BassAsin Real nice looking pike there..... WTG Looks like you guys are freezing on the last pic Great job and thanks for sharing Leechman
waterwolf Posted December 19, 2008 Report Posted December 19, 2008 if she's hooked pretty deep and not sure she'll make a healthy recovery,, don't chance wasting a beautiful pike. better on the table than rotting on the bottom. even hardcore c&r guys have to keep to take some colateral damage home sometimes. great day on the hard stuff ,, and a bonus eye to boot . congrats.
ciceri Posted December 19, 2008 Report Posted December 19, 2008 you are a lucky man, i'd love to be out hammering them.

SHE big female was hooked bad enough that from the fight the gills on one side were almost coming out her mouth. i always use a single 2/0 soft plastic wide gap worm hook to help prevent this from happening but gonna taste good i think and your right i didnt need to be feeding the mudpout and crayfish.
