Thanks don for posting.

Tip up

That tells me you weren't actively jigging. What kind of line and bait? Steel leader? This rookie needs to know!  :)

Yeah she's wasting away!    Homemade tip up.  40# mason brand braided tip up line.  Green.  Homemade quick strike rig. I use either  knot 2 kinky in either 25# or 35#.   What ever i can get. or i will use 30# cortland toothy critter.  Creek chub for bait.

Thanks. After seeing your pike and that other possible state record I need to expand my horizons beyond panfish!

Pike fishing is pretty addicting. You'll expand your horizons alright. Have fun explaining to your wife why you have to drive to valentine every other weekend. Lol.  I'm sure you can find em closer but this place will keep you coming back!!!
