Started a week of vacation today so my brother and I hit the river around 7. After about 20 min of cruisin we pulled up to a large weed bed and posted up. My brother hauled a mid 20s pike in the first couple casts. Then I had a big miss right at the edge of the weeds. Switched up to a big swimbait and jigged up a nice high 20s pike in the exact spot I missed the other hit.

Then I tied on a KVD frog and started workin it over the thick stuff. Had a sweet topwater EXPLOSION and a solid hookup!! Bring in another high 20s pike with a hunch back and an attitude, lol!!!! While "pointing" out the fact I barely had em hooked, the SOB turns and gets 4 teeth into 1 of my fingers!! :eek: Still got a quick pic while bleedng everywhere, lol......

After that, bro got another on an inline and I had another nice hookup with a spinnerbait but it took me into the weeds and came unbuttoned. :mad: All together nice morning on the river. Got out of there before the heat came on to strong.

Lastly, thanks again to all that serve. Never forget the events of this day and those that were lost......

Nice pike.

You picked a great day to have off from work. It's going to cool off significantly before the weekend.

Definitely all mine. By the time I got it bandaged up the back of my boat looked like a crime scene. :p Next time I'll just skip the whole, "look how I hooked him" part and just pop the hook and let em go...........
