St. Lawrence Pike Fishing Trip

[robd]

Well my long awaited week long pike fishing trip has come and gone. Let me tell you it was our best trip ever!! We fished for five days and I averaged about 25 pike a day and good or bad(since we were not fishing for them), 50 bass a day. I'm not sure if the bass population has exploded or we just hit it at the right time but every where we usually catch pike there were large numbers of bass. I almost felt bad but we were having too much fun. I will post pictures later this week but we caught some very nice pike. Friday afternnoon before memorial day in one spot I caught 16 in less than an hour and four of them were 8lbers. The biggest I boated was a 9lber but can't tell you how many in the 6-8lb range. I hope this is the beginning of a come back for the pike on the st. lawrence!!!
