Location: Maplewood, MN | If you catch a big pike, beeline it to a big musky spot! A tip from Tom Gelb. |

Location: Lake "y" cause lake"x" got over fished | When I fish for pike with my wife. She generally puts some bigger ones in the net. But I have been seeing a ton this year musky fishing as well. Buddy popped a 35" pike the other day on a 10" Jake on a metro lake. But like I said, My wife and I do pretty dang well for decent sized pike most of the year. Especially two years ago. If I had ten hands I still couldn't count all the ones she caught that eclipsed 30". |

| I have mainly fished western Wisconsin this year and I have noticed the same thing over here. Lots of 30+ inch pike, and they are biting all different types of baits from topwaters, dawgs, and bucktails. |

| Noticed the same here in southern Wisco.. quite a few 33"-38" pickerel, more than normal for me. Eating anything from 10s, topwater to large cranks? Kind of odd same consensus as above. Cant complain about nice pikies |

| We have caught a good handful of over 30" pike this year a bunch in the upper 20s and only one dink. Not sure where the hammer handles are hiding. |
