Sounds like a blast, guys. Have you pulled any pike through the ice there?

I got a pickerel there last year that was about the same length but not as thick as this one. Successful Pickerel fishing is what got me to switch from live bait to lures probably a decade ago. I still love catching them. And like GetANet said, they can definitely save the day and kick the skunk down the road!
