Just catchin on how to post pics, See what happens
Nice Fish, hey is that rod what you use for your decoys cause if it is than maybe you should try and put a few trebles on there for the ones that grab the decoys " if you can't spear em than fish em"
what is the closest state to Maine that you can spear pike.. This is way better then setting traps.
Looks like the spear is leathal enough, how many do ya need?
Guess you've never dozed off and woke up just as a pike was nailing your decoy and taking off like a bullet, never to be seen again, lol.
I'm pretty sure I have as many hours looking thru the ice as anyone here. My point is, 12 fish in one outing, I just don't think you need to augment the decoy with hooks to snag a few more. You're in target rich water where a spear alone will get you more fish than you could ever need.

How would that be snagging If the fish hits the decoy then it's pretty much just like fishing with a hook and line It makes more sense to have hooks than not have hooks but it is true that most decoys don't have hooks but that's only because the line is normally not connected to a fishing pole but in this case the decoy is on a fishing pole line so WHY NOT
This thread is about pics of fish, so back on topic: A 10.5lber (The only one I saw that day )
You guys get pretty wound up when someone says something here that you don't agree with or don't take the time to read the post close enough to understand the point. Bigporchmonkey said he didn't think spearing was the sport and disagreed with it. You guys (especially you Higgans) contribuited to a 4 pages of argument among yourselves defending the sport and hammering him. Let it go, it's just his opinion.I said "Looks like the spear is leathal enough, how many do ya need?" 12 pike in 1 outing is a lot of fish. If you get 12 in a day, you are probably going get as many as you could ever need on almost any day. Let it go...
