what is your top 3 fish??
« on: Feb 14, 2015, 09:24 AM »
Ive seen this done on AT with deer. Pretty cool thread. What is everyones top 3 pike in length? And what was the combined weight?

Also it would be cool to add what you caught them on!

44,43,41 66lbs   My 44 and 43 was the same fish caught in back to back years. Does that count? I also caught a few 41s and 40s.

My biggest was an open water fish.
45 1/2" caught on a fly.  ;D



Numbers 2 and three are ice caught fish.
Number 2 is a 44 1/2" beauty.



And number 3 is a 42" fatty.



As for weight I would have to guess. Probably 75-80#'s.
Caught tons of fish over 40" in the waters I fish. Still looking for that elusive 50"+ fish. I know of several that size have been caught. A friend guided one 53 1/2" fish during a fly fishing tourney here.

All three of my biggest pike have been 36" and I never weighed them. The biggest was about 15 pounds, second was about 12, and the smallest was around 8. I got the 8 on a 3 pound bass, and the other two on big suckers. They just don't get that big in central MN.

Very nice fish.

My best 3 are 43", 42" and 41", and a few 40's.

I would guess the weight somewhere around 57-59 pounds.. Im only 22 though, Ive got a lot of fishing left to do.

43


42


41

What were the individual weights? Must have been round as a basketball.
