First Pike

With summer hours in effect at work I headed home at 2 PM, Jim met me at the house and we went out on Lake Lililonah.  The boat was running nicely, by the way.  My father took it to Cabelas and they put new spark plugs in it.

We headed up the Shepaug to Pike Alley. Jim said he saw a pretty good sized pike come out of the water near the shore.  We fished the area pretty hard but no luck.  I was casting a pike spinner when this Northern struck at the side of the boat. It was feisty and really fought back. Jim netted it and, had a quick photo op and let Free Willy go.
