    Mananged another big cat out of the boat. Shown is my friend reid with his second flathead ever and PB. 39inches and 32 lbs. It was very cool to catch this fish when it was still this light out. We usually only get smaller muds when the sun is still up but this fish was an exception to that rule I guess. I also through in some other pics of some smaller kitties we’ve gotten over the last week or so.

    pike love gils… I bass fished with my dad on fathers day and he was skipping a small bass back to the boat and a big northern came up and chomped it. Got it all the way to the boat and snapped some pictures of it still holding on.

    In WI you can use gamefish as long as they’re part of your daily bag limit.

    Natureboy, how big was that pike? Nice fish!

    I’ve always been told they are legal in WI as long as they’re part of your bag. Northern was prob 12+lbs.
