Default Pike pic at Sylvan lake - long weekend

I caught one roughly this size a few years ago (same spot) and was lucky enough to do it again on the long weekend. I had to gill it in close to the mouth as we tried to net it but our net was too small. Pulled out my jig, quick pick, just got one measurment of just under 40'' and put her back.

Nice fish.
