Went to my favorite lake this week....the pike action was insane....mind you only one out of 20 was legal size. but a ton of fun, and no one else on the lake! and 20 pike in 2 hours, is more than I can wish for
the perch where scared, thin and nervous for good reason!
Just had a nice fry of pike chunks in breadcrumbs in butter-my son loves it too..we were fighting over the last pieces!winter fish taste best
if anyone has kids for a fun pike lake near edmonton PM me.....keepers of legal length dont show up often though. its a load of fun with smelts and a tip up. bring wirecutters to let the beasties loose if they get a little too into the bait.
