Northern Pike





These are Northerns from Minn Lake and Macrae Lake in Quetico park Ontario,(Boundary Waters) Early Sept. 2008. I have never caught fish like this I must have caught 15 Northerns in 3 days and could have caught more lost a couple spent alot of time jigging for walleye and hoping for Lake Trout which we never caught. but Northern were hammering everything!! Especially deep divers and semi deep diving rapalas and storm lures, just drilling them sometimes right at the surface like 3 ft. from the canoe which can scare the shit out of you if your not paying attention. The top 3 pics here are the same 31"er biggest fish I have caught to date caught that one off the shore at the bottom of these little rapids which was the most beautiful place I've ever fished. Above and below the rapids were money in a boat or off the shore. bottom one was like 28 or 29(biggest I caught out of a canoe) if they are over 28 I would suggest using the net. I tryed to lift like a 30 incher into the canoe with the line like i was doing with most of these but it snapped immediatley and I lost a real nice fish and a real nice lure. If its a nice fish net it!!!
