Biggest Pike.....

You got it. I still think about that gator and wonder how big it really was. I never said a word to Jerry as he felt kinda bad. Oh well, just means I have to go fishing again and hope another biggun hits. Sooner or later I will land a monster.

48" fish out of a marina here locally on Lake Superior.. This was about 15 years ago now.. We routinely would catch fish 40 inches or bigger and up to 45" in a season when I was in middle school and highschool. Now, we are lucky to catch 30 inch fish in the entire system throughout a season... Shows what harvest can do, to even a huge body of water..

I caught a 44.5" many years ago from a little lake close to home that grew them big for a couple years on stocked rainbow trout. Nice, thick fish...gonna guess close to 25lbs. The same lake produced a 43" fish that weighed 28lbs.

My biggest is a 34incher out of medicine lake. I have caught 3 that were also the same size out of the mississippi. Lost a northern that had to be pushing 20lbs in the boundary waters a few years back, that was a huge bummer, snapped my 15lb mono like nothing

My largest ever, 24lbs, and I am guessing somewhere between 43 - 46 inches. Caught up in the BWCA. You'll notice by the picture that I was still so stunned I couldnt get my mouth closed \:\)

My biggest pike came from a lake in Ottertail County. I was Texas-rigging a Yamamoto Senko for largemouth in the fall. The fish inhaled it like a bass, but didn't fight like one \:\) 15 minutes later, I had myself a beautiful 41" pike in the net. The most memorable thing about the catch, was the release. She swam away as if nothing had happened. Unforgettable.
