If you want to take the fish,

don't pass up the good shot when you have it. It may not come back. Wait for the shot you want; then once it is there take it.

I finally got my spearing clip, just gotta find out how to edit it and post it, I got an 7-8lber at noon today stuck em right in the snout, which is what I aimed for cuz I didnt want the fish to shake loose, guess having lost one to a shake off made me nervous, but now Im 4 fer 4 with my new spear, Ill post pics tomorrow, and hopefully the video, kinda funny cuz I lost my rod for my live decoy in the midst of spearing the fish and then the fish spun and ended up snagging my line n pole so when I pulled the fish outta the water the pole came up too! I have to video of it fallin, my gf swore so Im trying to edit it so I can put it up, or maybe Ill youtube it then give you guys the link!

I felt like seeing some bigger fish, so I moved the spear house to a protected slot lake. I likely won't get the spear wet the entire time I'm on the the lake. Good opportunities for some pics!

photo 1 is maybe a 30 incher. Photo 2 maybe a 37 incher. photo 3 and 4 are same fish. Photo 4 was taken seconds after photo 3. Maybe a 30 incher. Photo 5 maybe a 27 incher. Photo 6 maybe a 33 incher. Setup in 7 FOW. That decoy sucker is pretty good size. Crappie decoy ain't all that big, maybe 5 inches long.

whats the slot limit?

24"-36" protected

I ain't spearing anything unless I am sure it's 40+ inches. So, like I wrote earlier, it's very doubtful I will be getting the spear wet. Would be happy if ANY of them decided to bite my sucker-on-hook, though.

Thanks for all the comments everyone. I will try to get some more photos soon.

Awesome pics! I don't spear, mostly just like sight-fishing. I'd love to get in on a lake like that, it's been several years since i lived in an area that had pike that size that i could see on a consistant basis.

Found a way to get the spear wet! 30" Right behind the head.

Muskrat took up residence. Had to move the house. Sorry, no pike pics.

Nice pics. The mountains in the background are cool and the pic of jr is awesome. He looks like a happy little guy.

Ps I got an orange hat just like jr's.

      And eat!  Turkey, noodle, wild rice!   Darn good for first run ever! 😋

      I have not eaten one, they are protected generally here in the states and Canada although there have been special seasons for population control but I don't think it was harvested for meat. I've hunted in countries where they are not protected and was with someone who shot one, I didn't eat it but it just stunk after I picked it up.

      Do you guys eat cormorant?  Even Indians call them fisheaters, and they don't eat fisheaters! 🤮

      Happy Thanksgiving to you all as well. We had ours yesterday because our RN daughter in law had to work today.  So I'm trying my hand first time ever at turkey stock for soup later! 😋

      Yes! Enjoy your turkey day everyone!

      Happy Thanksgiving everyone.   The ice is coming.  Eager to get out. Dug out my old strikemaster Thursday and got it ready. Smokes like  a chimney at times, but can't justify buying a new one when the old still works good.

      They definitely are stinky birds, the cormorant that is. The Sandhills don't really smell. When you clean them it smells more like venison than waterfowl. We figured he wouldn't pick it up since they must smell similar to chickens and my buddy has trained the Chesapeake to not go after their chickens at home

      Many years ago it was legal to shoot cormorants.  My Grandfather at the time also had a chesapeake bay retriever and he said that dog would retrieve anything in the worst conditions.   One time he told me he shot a cormorant.  The dog swam out out there and refused to pick it up.  Apparently because they are so nasty, stinky, and greasy.   He said its the only bird that dog would not retrieve in 11 years.
