burbot in a pickerel lake?

[fish_finder]

 After readin about some of the pranks pulled i decided to pull one of my own. Thursday i caught a nice burbot and took it home for the fryer. After filleting it i remembered reading on here that someone put the remains of a fish on someones line, so i decided to try the same  Well yesterday we had a pickerel tourny, my buddy caught a real nice fish and was rubbing it in before he left to go register it (10 min walk down the lake). While he was doin that i proceeded to go in his portable, pull up his jig rod and hook the burbot remains on his spoon, dropped it back down and drove the rod down the hole so it looked like a fish had taken it. When he got back he was in his glory since he was sitting in 1st(turns out to end up in 5th at the end of the day). Then he saw his rod down the hole, got all excited and started yelling FISH ON! ITS ANOTHER BIG ONE! When he saw the burbot head below the ice his face had a puzzled look,(this lake has next to 0 burbot in it, and small ones at that, and we were in 7 fow  but when he hauled the whole thiing out and realized it was dead and already filleted the look on is face was priceless. He had a few choice words for me but our group and about a half dozen people in the surrounding area had a good laugh

I've got a good dead fish prank for you guys. Unfortunately I was the one that got pranked. I worked in a pizza shop during my younger years. The water I was scrubbing dishes in had been trashed by sauce buckets. I come back from a delivery hustle to the sink to pull the plug and drain the sink. Instead of grabbing the sink plug I grab the carcass of a pickeral that must've been pushing 30". I'll assume the pizza shop would like to remain anonymous for this one.

always a good laugh another good one is to tie the ice scoop to a line, it wobles back and forth as it come up feeling like a fish shake its head and fight, the harder they pull the heavier it seems, actualy had guys fight their "prize fish" for 5+ minutes see "color " as it comes up the hole start shaking with anticipation only to find a scoop
ice scoop 9$
look on your buddies face as he catches his "8 lb salmon" priceless
