northernpike56 Posted September 5, 2012 Report Posted September 5, 2012 Since I just learned how to post pictures, I thought I'd give you give a small review of my year so far. Here is my first fish for 2012, a 22 inch brown trout. I caught this one at la salle Marina in January on a rapala husky jerk. These are some fish I caught for dinner, any guesses on the weight of the pike? I thought a good 3-4 pounds. It has been the fattest pike I have caught this season. Next pic is the first walleye I caught at the cottage this year. He wasent very big, only 13 inches, but still tasted great. A good catch of walleye as well as 2 bonus perch at the cottage: 11 inch speckled trout I caught in a creek near my cottage. He was a keeper (that's why I 'rough handled' him). I went to a family friends cottage a few weeks ago, and went out in their canoe with their little guy Hunter. We were casting to a fallen tree, both with rapala original floating lures, and this monster came out and smashed his lure. His first pike and He's only 5!!! Thought I'd share, I thought these pics were cool. Matt.

northernpike56 Posted September 5, 2012 Author Report Posted September 5, 2012 looks like a great season I love the shades on the big guy with his pike thanks for taking the time to share yeah he was excited as hell to catch it. I was trying to teach him how to hold it properly which is why its to dirty, but still took off when we put him back in the lake!
Live2fish85 Posted September 5, 2012 Report Posted September 5, 2012 Nice work. You got some nice fish there.
Rod Caster Posted September 5, 2012 Report Posted September 5, 2012 Great photos and catches. Its nice to get into a walleye feed or two. I'd say two or three pounds for that pike.
