1st Kayak Pike of 2014

Nice fish Rob! Anyone know why they don't stock them in monksville? It seems like that north side would be good habitat from why I understand of pike.

Pike are considered a nuisance fish in many states and countries. They can over-populate a lake and decimate native gamefish pops. There are cases of state agenices having to poison lakes to get rid of them. They gotta be careful where they stock them. Natural reproduction in NJ is rare so thats the only reason they aren't a problem fish...yet.
