robert Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 bitten only once? I get bitten (or at least bleed some) just about every time I go out. fair game says I It's amazing how fast a pike can double back on itself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 420FLYFISHIN Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 i think only a few fish can actually catch their tails lol. if only he had slid his hand up to the gills/fins area you can prevent them from doing that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headscan Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I think the fish he was releasing was a trout and the pike came at him from in the water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admin Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 There was a grayling being released, and the pike was after that grayling. Pretty sure this is posted a couple years back on the site, but it's a classic now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taco Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Watched the live version the other day, a group of pike working a pod of whitefish. 8-9 different times you'd see a huge boil and a pike would swim by with a whitefish in it's face. Needless to say nymphing for whitefish was kinda slow and my 8wt and bigassed streamers were @ home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
