My Brother caught a River Monster Northern Pike yesterday evening... [View all]

These were two of the 4 he has caught over the last 2 days. I got there a bit late because I had to work ...but I did catch one.... a 12" Pike with 6" bait! lol

I have to land me one ... we are heading out on Wednesday again.

Since he had caught 2 the night before he gave me the big one tonight. Here it is on my kitchen table before I filleted it.
