Thanks. I didn't, we took some comparison shots, but they don't do much justice. ::)

I was alone, luckily.  ;) I'm assuming you have fished there before.

Nice fish, It would look a lot better if your fingers wer'nt hiding the fish. Practice makes perfect, keep catching. Look at my avatar, my 12 yr old daughter will show you how to hold it.

Really? People try to tell you how to hold your fish on here; wipe it off, etc. Give me a break.... Haters going to hate. That's why this site has gotten a negative rap. People cannot compliment a nice catch, or simply keep their negativity to themselves.

I checked it out, awesome fish! As far as the spot, I live 5 minutes away, too many people "advertising it", caused problems for   access.

That was always an interesting topic of conversation there.  I haven't been in years because the spot isn't pretty and there's much larger down the road!  :o

Almost prespawn time.

Pike newb here... educate me. How do you approach pike during pre spawn?

I’m picturing big dead bait along weed lines adjacent to shallow water..

Bucket list this year was to seriously go after pike but got kinda side tracked by lakers.
Haven’t accomplished much since that happened and it turns out they’re the root of all evil. (Subject of another thread perhaps)

I'm pretty sure I know where your talking about. Another gentleman and I were discussing "this" spot. It potentially should have Pike also.

Lakers are more fun and wait until you jig a 30" or larger.  Prespawn pike is more about location for me at least. There are spots where they'll group up before moving up shallow to spawn.  The bite is usually good.  Deadbait.
