Anyway the damn broke one year and that summer with the water down 3-4 ft big pike just started floating belly up. I saw 3-4 my self and many more reported. No one has caught a pike at this lake since then. Something to think about.
Farrington is pretty big but not that deep. I believe the deepest point is about 12 feet. It did get pretty dry in certain areas but not dry to the point that you cannot fish. It was back to normal by mid fall at least from my point of view.

I don't know if it had any effect on pike population but as mentioned at least for me pike there seems like a mythological creature. You hear stories but never see it.

As mentioned they been caught there and I believe they did catch a few when survey was done so that will be my quest for the year 2015.

Mark my words before year is over I will be holding the monsta in my hands.
