I am pumped that one of our favourite pike holes is plenty safe for fishing. 6" of nice black ice. A friend and I had a couple hours free this afternoon so we set out after some pike and perch.
Fished from 2pm to 415pm, caught 2 perch, 3 pike and both missed a fish. But the catch of the day was a beauty 34", 9lb pike. It took several long runs on me, awesome fight!
Can't wait to get out again!

Wow thats a pretty big pike! I'm hoping to catch one through the ice this season hopefully, I've head there are some pike lakes around my school.

Thanks everyone! It was a solid fight! Made my day!
O4T: Ya, to be honest besides a nice smallie in August and a nice walter in October, I didn't have any post worthy outings in the boat
Hopefully I have some more ice posts this season.
Be careful out there!

That is a very nice pike to get through the ice. I bet it was a blast bringing it up!
