some people might put them down, but no one who's caught a really big one! The 6 pound 9 ouncer I got at Gull was a battle to get thru a double 8 inch hole, ended up shoving my hand in its gills to get it thru the ice, and it hit like a freight train too. This the same lake you get the little pike on? :evilgrin: should have given me a call Id help you land it.

How big would that thing have to be to not go through a 10 Hole.(and before it starts, I realize bigger than 10 inches!:lol:) Weight wise though??
My six year old has concerns after he saw a 32" pike I brought home, thoughts about ling that size may keep him away from water for good :lol:
Sucks to lose it, but a good fight nonetheless .Cool

x2 Either huge or the hook was getting snagged on the ice as you tried yankin him up. My personal best Burb is just over 8lbs and it came out of a 6". Get back out there and get him, I wanna see pics!
