"Hunchbacked" Alaskan northern pike caught on 7 Feb 04 by Barleydog.  Fish is 19.7 Lbs. and 38" long.  Caught on 6 lb. test and a piece of shrimp, (accidental catch while trout fishing.)







Sorry guys!  I hadn't seen the 2004 sticker law, (it's ok if I am dinked for it, It's still a pleasure to post it.)  My sharemation account has been down, so I had to post ASAP on Hunt101.

Man BD, you still owe me a pike fishing trip ;D.  I've been really busy though and probably can't do anything soon.  Nice fish!

Am I missing something? Isn't the tourney card displayed in the last pic on the bottom of the fish? What is the difference between this post and Trevor's? I just want to make sure I'm doing it right.  My understanding is take a pic of the fish agaist the tape with tourney card as well as one with myself holding the fish.  ???

In the original entry (top 2 photos) there was no card and you couldn't read the rule (tape measure).

The first post was missing the 2004 tourney sticker for which I had overlooked!  Scott O.K.'ed me to repost, (thanks Scott) BUT I'm only doing this to put pressure on you other pike hunters! ;)  I know that we have a bunch of great gater hunters out there, now ya got something to shoot for!  Good luck all...  No excuses -Barleydog ;D

Grump - I hope I can get something alittle closer to home.

It doesn't neccessarily have to be a musky you know.

BD - I'll just be happy to be able to get out fishing. We've got serious snow/slush problems on the lakes up here right now.  :-\

I still don't know how you can live with yourself after entering an accidental catch like that!  ;)

Me niether!  Can't figure out "why" a fish that size would want to touch a piece of stinky freezer burnt shrimp flesh.  :) ???
I see that the east is on a see-saw weather pattern.  How much ice do you have?

I'm not in the east I'm in the center... Manitoba, Canada. Lots of ice (~30") but problem is the 30" of snow ontop of it! Even snowmobiles are getting bogged down in the slush in places.

It seriously sucks!!  >:(
