Bob Too funny!
Those grabbers really save your hands from some toof marks!! Boga grips. I don't see them in any of your pictures on the Mn. HSOforum??
Do you guys use them, out there??

I have a less expensive Rapala I'm trying this year. Both Boga, and Rapala have scales built in them , too.
Rakes don't happen often but, this is the alternative:

I live my gripper. I always have it with me while ice fishing. It does not hurt the fish and it allows me to keep the fish in the water while I'm getting cameras ready for pictures. Here is a pic on mine with a lanyard.

I use the Berkley model. The Boga was a little out of my price range. I've had my Berkley for 3 years and have had no problems with it.I think they are around $30 or less. The Boga is $120 and up. I DO NOT like the Repala unit. It has some nasty teeth on it and it damages the fish.

Here is a video of a little pike and me using a gripper.

Hanson,
Nice fish. They look very healthy.

As a side note....Do you guys have any problems with Esocid Lymphosarcoma out there? We have seen some on Lake Champlain, but it seems like it was better in 2004 then it was in 2003. It does not kill that many pike, but muskie can take a real beating with it.

Erik,

First off, you have to have place to put your pictures on the internet, some sort of server like Shutterfly or something like that. Once you have that and you download your picturs onto that server, you need to highlight and copy the url address of the picture. You can find that if you right click on the picture and click on properties. Once you have the url copied than go back here and post a reply. In your reply you're going to want to place that url address (from the picture) inside and . So you will get something like... url address that you copied. Then the picture should show up.

I hope this makes sense. If you have anymore questions then drop me an e-mail and I'll help you out.

Joe,

Yep, Mille Lacs holds a lot of big pike. Not a bad drive from where we are. South Center Lake also has a lot of big pike too, as does Minnetonka, Rush and Big Marine Lake. All have big fish potential.
