Darkhouse Spearing Photos Gallery

Ask for a spearing decoy at the bait shop, I will use sucker as big as 15-16 inches but typically go about 12 -13 inches.

You will be surprised at how many little pike will come in and check out those big decoys and it also gets the pike to slow down and check out the bait so you have a little time to get your spear ready.

WOW that's a big sucker.

Most people get the huge 10" suckers or so and their harnesses have weights on the top (for a pin on) and the live harness have the weights on the bottom. I personally use the live harnesses and have had only one get off because my fingers were numb when I put it on and didn't have it tight enough

I use suckers on the 10" range. I like your comments about how they were coming in on different decoys including some that didn't swim good. When they are in the mood it doesn't matter what you throw down there. Those are the fun days.

You can buy weighted pins like Neighbor Guys. They won't be quite as fancy as his. I like them because they keep the bigger suckers in the hole.

hillbilly, great meeting you yesterday. It maybe was a good idea to move I was a little p.o. about having to leave early, but seeing the weather last night and this morning, I'm glad the girls left early.

[hillbilly...]

Well I haven't had much time to post pics this winter, but I did get a nice fish on the ice a couple weeks ago from a lake up north. It was right on 35 inches, and later in the day I had another mid 30's come in. Only two fish I saw that day, but it was a blast.

That's a nice fat fish, and not another house in sight.
