This 20 pound plus northern hit this Teaser Leader (aka weed line) in only three feet of water ice fishing. See above water photos of this fish and check out more videos at www.reelweeds.com
That reveals a secret us old timers have known about for years--monster pike are mostly bottom feeders. They look for easy prey naturally on the bottom and tend not to trust suspended dead bait.
Its a nice fish for sure. but 20 plus? my biggest ever was 41" and it was fat and healthy. i released it, but i know it wasnt 20 lbs. 36-40 inches is not at least 20 pounds! 15 perhaps.
Assuming that's an 8 inch hole, that fish is about 36-40 inches - at least a 20 pounder. The rig they are using is called a Weed Line - Predator by LaDredge Outdoors. They also make those Reel Weeds.
