MCTFisher9120 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 (edited) Well, I reek like pike right now haha, today Rick(Gonefishin), his girlfriend and I all got out bright and early to a new area we haven’t been to, for what was going to be a great day of Pike fishing. We covered lot's of shoreline and near the end of the stretch we choose we started to pick up fish...then the entire way back. We landed and caught 10 Pike and I frigged up on one of Ricks and lost it then we had another 4 or 5 good hook ups but they ended short. Fish 1 Spinnerbait Fish 2 Spinnerbait Fish 3 Spinnerbait Fish 4 Spinnerbait Fish 5 Spinnerbait Fish number 6 she hooked up and after a quick battle it let go, Rick threw in the same area with the minnow bait and pulled this pike in, a joined catch! Fish number 7 jerkbait Fish number 8 spinnerbait And the last pike, had to do the mercer shot spinnerbait fish again can't get rick's 5th pike to load properly but it was equal in size to our average. My advice on this thread is find flats, fish slow and don’t get stuck on color in the murky water conditions. We did lot’s better than last opener and were prepared, having tight drag to get the hook in then a fast half dozen clicks back on the drag was important to let the fish run around and to have some fun tiring them out for easy landing. A amazing day, My guess for the count was 10 today and Rick’s was 12, wish he was right but no way can I complain! Until tomorrow in a different location off shore this time And the confident smile of the best pike day of out lives MTBF Thanks for the reading ladies and gents Edit* Only added 1 pike to this weekends catch, caught a decent little guy on a spoon today. More to come next weekend Edited May 8, 2011 by MikeTheBassFisher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCTFisher9120 Posted May 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 Great replies, only managed one small pike at out next spot today Lot's were sunning their selves on the banks then slid out quickly, 1 more week and a increase of temp and the fish will stay out deeper and be easier to catch!
