WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Lots of trash talk going on behind the scene via text! Just bring it! You all know who you are! I can't wait to get this going! I'm off for the next 10 days! I will be camping on the river or a bigger body of water with my yak on the truck at all times.

You rookies out there be sure not to loose a big fish because of your Spider-Man rod. And if you don't know how to tie a knot let me know I'll send you a link for knot tying!

BRING IT ON!!!

PIKE-A-THON 3 is only a few short hours away.......................:D:

Andrushkin and RyanMac, leave the Carp and Bass gear at home, this is a BIG BOY's game. You could have used your entry fee for private lessons from the defending CHAMPS, but we will gladly take your hard earned CASH.

LoL,

Rookies got the power of Shwartz behind them, so you better recognize.

You past accomplishments are exactly what they are .... Past.

This is present and future so you better be on top of your game boys.

I am down to get the side bet going if you two old farts are ready for it.

Let the trash talking commerce my pedigree chaps. We are going for that belt and big boys pants are on.

Fish on,

Much Love

Be there Saturday to sign up !
Let the best pike win

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Oh yess please send me your knot tying steps!! For your information I use a super man rod not spiderman. I do need a favor though, can you send me a guide on how to identify a pike. Us rookies dont know any better, pike are the one with the black stripe under the eye right? :D You two may be the "two to beat" but that beating is going to be far from difficult. Good luck ladies. ;)

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Well since my brother had to drop out i guess il have to take the crown for the family >=] be there to sign up tomorrow.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!! Nice comeback dude. May be time for a diaper change I think. Or possibly a spanking!

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Hey guys. I have never caught a pike before, but I am interested in learning. Would someone be kind enough to let me tag along with them. Don't want to impinge on "secret spots", just want to learn basic techniques.

I tried live lining shiners where Black Brook enters Spruce Run Reservoir a couple times the first week of April and had no luck. Would be happy to catch a pike regardless of size.

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Hahaha good luck eddie..look forward to seeing what you guys get.

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

You know I just realized that during the tourney it would be a firs time ever that I don't want to see any bass on the end of my line.

Desi,

You know you more than welcome to tag along with us "noobs" if the supreme leaders will be too busy too show you the ropes.

This thread is Aladeen.

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Well I went out on my kayak for the first time today and of course for the pikeathon. Only got one pike. Did not want to measure it because I didnt feel like it was contest worthy. But it gave a good fight and here's the pic. Prob 25-27 inches.

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Nice fish so far guys! Again, thank you for joining the contest!

I fished 2 spots so far today and just got home to dry out a bit. Spot one I fished from 9 to 11 or so landing 4 Pike over 30 inches but losing a 35 inch or better fish when it spit the hook, darn! The fish was pretty fat but she got away.

Spot 2 produced 3 more Pike 30 inches or better but again another big fish lost. It was my last cast of the afternoon and BOOM, I get railed. I see the flash in the water and its a pretty long fish, longer than the fish from spot 1. All of the sudden it feels like my line hits something and POOF, the Pike is gone, GRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! Cant land every fish I guess. Pretty good day of catching despite the cooler temps and annoying rain. 7 pike landed for the day. Heres a couple of the 30 inchers from today.
TIGHT LINEZ!!!

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Got out for a bit this morning. Had a lot of action, but all small fish. Had one fish in the mid 30's hooked up, but as luck would have it, it was the only fish I lost haha. Anyway, since this is my first pike tournament, just for fun here is one 20" fish.

Fish from today

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Good catch buddy! Glad to see that guys are remembering the mystery item, lol! Like my buddy Jeremy said, you have to stay hydrated when your out there. Im happy to see guys catching some fish the first day of the contest. Lets load this thread up with pics guys. FISH PORN!!! EYE CANDY!!!

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Not a great start but a couple fish landed. 30 minutes in and had a follow to the kayak. Figure 8 tricked him and he was in the kayak a couple minutes later. Solid 35 inch fish.........camera mount doesn't work. ..plan B...Camera phone. .can't swipe to camera with wet fingers. ..pike jumps out Of kayak.

After that, landed a 28 inch pike and then a 20 inch. Pictures to follow.

On the way in, played around with a 36 inch fish that didn't want to play nice.

Great fish Ed !!

Glad to hear you found your toothy friends after a rough week locating them. Fishing for Pike from the Yak can be a task when your alone. Sounds like a few of us lost a good fish yesterday. Stay on there trail buddy! See you out there!:D

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Off to a good start I am jealous

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Well, got out today after the rain stopped and caught a few more Pike but nothing huge landed or hooked. Most waters were off color of course but there were a few areas that produced some fish. Nothing to brag about today. Landed 3, 1 @ 31 inches and 2 @ 24 inches or so. It'll take a couple days for the river to go back to it's normal brown color. At least we didn't get hammered and completely blown out.

TIGHT LINEZ GUYZ!!!

SHOW ME THEM TEETH!!!

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Let me get this straight...all I see is a bunch of fish stories with no monsters on a ruler!?!? What is this amateur hour??? And Eddie catches the biggest one so far but doesn't even measure it??? He basically just spat in yo face!!! Throw up a 38" and make him sweat a little, he thinks he's going to win this with a 40"! Looks like there's a lot of shade in that one pic buddy...hahahaha

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Went today to a spot where I had them yesterday that produces in poor conditions. Not a monster at 29.5" but certainly a lot of fun, especially after the rain last night. FYI, I wet the ground with spring water prior to laying the fish down to prevent any slime loss.

If you look over my right shoulder you can see the river.

Heading off to Massachusetts until Friday. Catch 'em up!

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Some more rounds of rain this week but hopefully nothing heavy and scattered.

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

Great catches all around guys.

Weekend was not good to me in terms of pike and great in terms of everything else.

But its coming and when it comes be ready.

Andre

Re: Pike-a-thon 3, 2015!!! 6/27-7/5!!!
 

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Must be nice when you can get out and whack a big Pike on your lunch break. Hit the river for an hour today and yes it was high, yes it was almost unfishable, yes its as dirty as it gets. But 1 Pike decided she was hungry today. What a battle! Fish hit a 9 inch plug after a little twitch, twitch. All of the sudden, BOOM!!! This fish was all over the river jumping like a complete maniac. The aerial show was a sight to see. Finally I get the fish in the net and the damn net breaks and the fish almost flops back into the river. No, oh no, I'm saying to myself. Your not getting away from me you sexy Pike. Yep, I tackled her to the ground and got all banged up in the process. Put her back in the water while i goy my water, tape and Camera ready. All this while holding her by the tail so she wouldn't get stressed. Unbelievable!!! I need a new net, a bigger net! Here's the pics of the 36 1/2. The fight was nutz! Get out there guyz and girlz! The Pike have been hitting hard for over 3 weeks already.

TIGHT LINEZ!!!

SHOW ME THOSE TEETH!!!!!
