Why lake X ? It is because to many BITCHERS on this forum whining about sharing their honey holes and lost fishing spots!! And for the place I was fishing was Sylvan RR#23 . 21 FOW and I have been catching these pigs for three days now . Lots of fish their now but you have to work for them

I go to Open Creek Dam in the summer and put in a minnow trap and catch 10 inch Sucker minnows works great for pike!!

The pike in sylvan always seem to be pretty tight lipped, but at least theres some big fish swimming around.

I just wanna apologize for this, I realize you may actually be curious, and not looking to hate on another forum member like many others on here do! I shouldn't jump to conclusions so fast! Sorry for the assumption Tyangelo!
Back on track...

Now I have a picture to show my buddy what a 20 lber ACTUALLY looks like. According to him every sizable fish we pull out of the hole is 20 lbs. Definitely beats my "20 lber" yesterday that weighed in at 13 lbs on the scale.

Nice, I was out on Sylvan couple of weeks ago and we got a 12 lb, but that one of yours looks like it would have ate ours!

No Worries Mofugger. I was simply curious. Would have said nice things either way. If a big fish gets put back, congratulations is in order for keeping big spawning fish alive.
If a big fish is harvested, congratulations is in order for the wicked dinner at stake.
If THREE 20lb+ fish were to be harvested by the same guy on the same day, then I'd start to lose some respect...heh.
