Finally took some time off to go fishin'

 

These were the only two my wife was around for to take pics.

 

 

 

Nice fish but whats up with the gloves?

ehhh I dunno, slippery lil suckers

 

Maybe I'm just a wuss?

What kind of fish are we looking at here? I'm from Ohio...we don't have fish like that back home.

They are freshwater fish called pickerels, aka southern pike, or jack fish.

 

I don't eat them, they are a pain to clean, tons of little bones.

I thought they looked like pike, but I've only ever fished for Northern Pike..looks similar but the color of your fish is lighter and the head appears bigger. It's got the same head profile and the long body. Very close but not quite the same.

Nice work Chad. There are plenty of places in your area to fish, I have actually been hitting some of them recently, since I work out that way now.

Where were you fishing?

Nice Pike! :handgestures-thumbup:

I'm glad to see that there are a number of other forum members that enjoy fishing too!

Fill me in on the hot spots! I've been out of the loop for a long time, I'm not sure whats really around here. . .
