Good start!

With the nice weather I decided to hit up a spot for Pickerel. Glad I did. Fished from 4-5 pm. Started of slow but then nailed two nice ones in the last half hour:D . First one was a nice 22 in healthy and heavy Pick. The second one was a bit smaller but had a fat belly. Love catching a predatory fish that still has its breakfast in its throat and still wants more. You could just see the sunny tail sticking out of throat :eek: . Good way to start the 2012 season. Regreting not coming out earlier, could've caught a couple more fish :rolleyes: .

Off to a great start !

Thanks! Provided it doesn't get too cold and ice forms I'm going to try again on my next day off. Missed a big Pick that was about 26 in there about 2 yrs ago in February. There is a handfull of big ones there and this is the time to get them. But if ice forms up then I guess I will just have to try for some of those holdover trout that some of you are hooking into ;) !

Nice! Do you have a larger picture of the one with the tail in its throat? Couldnt really make it out.

[ED209]

Sorry been stuck stuck at work! I will try to post a larger picture later. Its not the best picture as you could just see the tip of the tail sticking out but there is no mistaking that extended gut on a fish that has swallowed something at least 1/4 of its size!

Sorry tried enlarging the picture but all it did was make it very blurry. I will definitely get better shots next. I didn't want to keep that fish out of the water for too long. I'll be heading out this weekend, hope you guys get out aswell. Good luck if you do!!
