I was out fishing off shore yesterday and I saw my buddies Bill and Jason out in a boat. They fished near me for 4 hours and between our 6 lines no pike. I had to go and they headed out on a connecting river to find some fish. I got home and had a call from Bill. Just after they set up on the river Billy caught a 40 1/8" pike. I thought he was joking but on the radio this morning they said he was leading the pike category and that it was the biggest pike entered in a few years. I'll see if I can get a pic and post it! It weighed 13.9 pounds
