Pike Opener

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Pike Opener

Post by crwalker1987 »

Hey guys,

I got kind of spoiled this weekend. I pulled out 2 hogs but the others were decent little guys too.

Cheers,

Chris

Nice fish Chris...

On a side note, with the larger fish, proper handling would be to craddle them, as opposed to hanging them from their jaw. With larger fish it's easy to break their jaw. I'm sure the muskie guys would get quite upset to see a big muskie hanging as such.

Right under the Bronson bridge, I didn't cradle the fish because it had died all over it, that's why the others are lying flat, and it's not a musky

Nobody told you that it's a Musky but I'm sure that Pike would mind proper treatment as well.
You caught nice fish, and if you like to keep them healthy treat them well.

Tough call on handling. Some folks I believe use Boca Grips for fish like pike and muskie for innocent reasons...

Anyways... however ya handle things dood. Couple nice opener pike for ya and I hope you enjoyed yourself.

Sure..., next time roll them in sand, add some road rash, let them dry a bit and only then throw those poor buggers back ...
How do I fit in now? :twisted:
