Pike - davetclown - 12-02-2003 who is targetting them this winter? what is your favorit rig? [signature] Re: [davetclown] Pike - callie - 12-02-2003 Hey: Last winter was by far the best pike season I've ever experienced. It seemed like every time I went after walleye Mr. Pike was hanging around. One afternoon my partners and I caught and released 12 of them. Most were under 25", but a couple exceeded 33". Thus, I have found the that the same rig I use for walleye seem to work well with pike also. I ususally bait up a jig(green, yellow)with a live minnow hooked through the dorsal and let the little guy do most of the work, while jigging periodically. Here's to some hard water soon in Northern Michigan!!!!!

[signature] Re: [davetclown] Pike - stormy26 - 12-12-2003 The famous old tip-up with a nice 7 inch chub with a cut tail so he looks hurt. The pike love them. Did real good last year. I hooked up about everytime last year with a pike just around 30 inches the biggest one reached 40 inches just over 11 lbs. last year I caught a nice bass on a tip up 17 incher 2lbs and when I was pulling him in, a pike grabed him and left a whole row of teeth marks across his back and belly. That is the one I'm after this year. I now he is there because I seen him this summer out blue gill fishing with the kids. Can you say SHARK!! he has to be puhing 45 to 50 inches long and guessing 18lbs. [signature] Re: [stormy26] Pike - davetclown - 12-13-2003 sounds like he will be worth the effort. we got a big one over here at my place whwre we were at last winter. he grabed a 12 inch bass I was pulling in and killed it. I had to throw the bass back, well because ya know we cant keep them that size but the pike can. I am gessing the one here is about 60--70 and may go 25-30 pounds. I watched him pull ducks down this summer. streight down with no fight from the ducks. I witnessed 6 duck drownings this past summer. you are welcome to come out with me again and give him a go, I have thrown every thing in my box at him, But I think my problem is I dont have any thing bigenough to draw his attention. [signature] Re: [davetclown] Pike - DrownedDesertRat - 12-13-2003 So it was a Pike and not that snapping turtle we're gonna use the tow truck to land? [signature] Re: [DrownedDesertRat] Pike - davetclown - 12-13-2003 yep, aperantly I am not the only one to see the monster. he has been rearing its head out of the water on ocation. He is a wopper and a half. he scares me more than a giant snapper. he may not have the strenth of a snapper but he has the teeth of a gelette stainless.. one nick in the wrong place and ya wont make it out of the water to tell about it. [signature] Re: [DrownedDesertRat] Pike - davetclown - 12-06-2004 I may have answered this pike and not turtle thing incorectly. this lake contains both a mastidon of a monster turtle if not two and a pike that could use fat alberts leg for an apitizer!!!! HEY HEY HEY!!![shocked] I am sharpening my harpoon getting ready for the catch of the centurary...... [signature] Re: [davetclown] Pike - DrownedDesertRat - 12-07-2004 You've gotta catch both before you move. And I want to be there to help! [signature] |
