The Year Of The Pike.

[dartag]

Not sure what is going on but I have caught more Pike this year than any other year.   Fished Oakland today and caught 9 Pike in 6 hours.   Got bit off quite a few times.  They have been Big Pike too.  Today I had 3 that were over 6 pounds easy.  Thinking I am going to start throwing a Red Daredevil and maybe the Bass will bite it.

Hopefully you were fishing soft plastics and not some of your favorite hard baits. That could be expensive along with annoying.....

Drop shot along weed edges.

I agree... the pike are out of control this year... I don't know why?? As I've mentioned in other places, I'm even catching lots of pike from lakes I may not have caught a pike from in years...?? Secret pike cartel at work?!?

At one point I had both drop shot rods a waky rig rod and Jig rod bit off or needed re-rigging.   Had to sit down and retie everything.

I know the feeling...
