I was using 7 inch bait fish (seriously). My theory is that they are fished so hard and are caught by accident alot by bass fishermen, that hardly any make it to the 30 inch length. Any that do, go out into the lake in the summer, away from the human pressure, to persue perch, bass, and developing trout and salmon schools. Later they return in the late fall, and stay over winter in the rivers. I think pike are really smart as far as fish goes. i also think they have a real food shortage in the summer, once the bait fish finish their spring spawn, and head up stream, or into the lake. Of the keepers i got this year so far, 2 have had other pike in their belies. <br>I was out trolling with a buddy about a month ago, we were running a line down 40 feet, in 60 feet of water. WAM!! rod bends over on it self, i reel it up, the 60lb braided line had been sliced clean. i think thats where their at. <br><br>how can i post pictures on this site, id like people to know i speak the truth and not fish-tales.

As for big pike, I wonder why there is such a lack of 40+ inchers these days.

Forage in most places i've been is good. They most be getting out eaten by something.

The 34inch one from sandy was considered HUGE by the marina owner who's marina also serves as a weigh in station for tournaments. I hear that in way northern canada you can still catch 45+ fish fairly regularly, but as for around here i dont know where. Sandy did have a 46 incher taken last winter, but that was through the ice. did u see the photo of the pike i caught last month in sandy creek? 34 inches, 9 lbs, 30 mins to reel it in. it pulled me around like i wasnt even pulling back.
