Hi, So I got my own Tackle Box and Cantilever design 2 tray I have been using my brothers up until now and, some of my friends gave me some stuff, I went fishing today and caught my first Pike ayayayayayay, my brother had one on but it got off, guess how much the pike weighs (I didn't have scales with me)

You looked very well preserved for a 50 year old!when i caught my first pike the term "care" was unheard of!

Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

Seeing as nobody else will have a go, I'll guess about 4lb 6oz Dan. Much bigger than my first pike, many, many years ago, when I was about your age, (and that's wasn't 50 chesters).

Angling is more than just catching fish, if it wasn't it would just be called 'catching'......... John

I think John has the weight about right....and a perfect size for eating!

Eating wild caught fish is good for my health, reduces food miles and keeps me fit trying to catch them........it's my choice to do it, not yours to stop me!
