optelic2 48 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) Excellent thread! I was an avid pike angler for many years (until i got the match fishing bug ). I always used to try and give advice on pike handling as the amount of people young and old who would hook a pike and then try to unhook it often with totally inadequate equipment was pretty common. As already mentioned pike are suprisingly fragile fish and poor unhooking techniques often result in a dead fish. Atb Mick Edited February 11, 2011 by optelic2 Quote Link to post
