BIG Northern Pike Pics anyone??

These are some AWESOME fish guys! I can't wait until I go up fishing in CA again this spring, I'll have some great photos of pike, walleyes, and bass. If this thread is still near the top, I'll fill it up with the pike pics at least. We usuall catch 5-6 fish of at least 40" every trip.

Catch alot of Big Pike in our irrigation impoundments. Dont like to kill them mommas but this one died pretty much in the hole ice fishing. Quick strick rig caught a gill.

I hate killing them too. Some good genetics down the drain when that happens. I have a 10lb walleye and a 21lb pike mounted from pictures and measurements. Definitely a better way to do things. Save the little ones for eating, let the big ones go.
