Bannr pike day !

[msgdan]

Yesterday was one of my best days ever on the river. With perfect weather and river conditions, I hit one spot at 8 AM for a couple of hours, went home and did a little yard work, and then went to a different spot at around noon.




In the first two hours, I landed at least 7 pike and 2 pickerel, with 5 being quality fish and a couple that were tiny. At the second spot I launched, I landed at least 8 pike and one more pickerel. I would say that I missed at least 5 fish between both spots that "felt" very good. I almost launched at a third spot in the late afternoon, but decided to do a little more yard work and then do a little grilling and continue to "hydrate" myself !! LOL




Here are a few pictures of some of the better fish of the day.

I'm breaking out in a rash just seeing that much poison ivy.

Looks like you had an excellent day out on the river.

Nice looking fish Dan. Is there a state record in there? Ahhhhhhh yes, staying hydrated on these warm days is the key to life. I gotta say I think I may have over hydrated myself this weekend. SHEEEEESH, tough to get out of bed this morning. PIKE MAYHEM!!!!!

Here is my favorite picture from yesterday. I had a BIG pike at the side of the kayak and went to grab him when he started going crazy. I did manage to just grab the spinner bait and try to lift him, until...............the picture will tell the rest of the story!
