Default Personal Best Pike at Spruce Goose
When the line tightened I thought for sure it was a hybrid bass....but it was not moving too quickly. Ok so maybe a decent bronze back took the herring....

When the monster surfaced I was truly surprised.

6 pound test, swallowed the hook and the line held. Quickly netted the largest pike I've ever caught.

Somewhere 34 to 36 inches think. I was worried that by the time I got the pictures it had been out of the water too long so no measurements.
