Title: My 1st Northern Pike - Thank you IS Members
Post by: Prairiegoat on Mar 11, 2007, 01:02 PM: I'm Littlegoat and I caught my 1st Northern Pike thanks to all the help you gave me and my Daddy at http://www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/index.php?topic=51191.0 (http://www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/index.php?topic=51191.0)

3 lbs. 2 oz. - 23"
11 Mile, Colorado
Caught jigging with a quickstrike rig baited with herring. I caught it all by myself. My daddy grabbed it out of the hole. It was fun and it pulled very hard. I am so happy. A friend of ours took it home and will smoke the meat for me. I think it will taste very good. Wish you all could share it with me. Thank you to everyone who helped me catch my first northern. Your advise helped.
