We saw 10 Tigers with several exciting follows and takes but none landed, thats Musky fish'n. The weather was a mixed bag of mist, rain, a little sun it w...

Very well said Mike. Its importent to remember Don is reporting the news, not making it. Don't shoot the messanger. To have a more complete understanding of the issue (pike in the POR) one must also study the 2009 Lease Agreement. The agreement between the Kalispel Tribe and the Operators/Owners of ...

I can't believe its been a year already that the blog has been up and running. In a few days it will top 10,000 page views, it now averages 75 fellow fisherman visiting the site a day. It all started with fisherman from right here on WA.Lakes, your pictures and stories. Still most of the pictures ar...

Nice catch!!

Austin Fletcher? He never said.

Check it out! Fish "TV", the Pike Channel . A great story and report by Mr. G. http://foreverfishing-sparky1doug.blogspot.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Ice Fishing on the Pend Oreille for Northern Pike. I want to thank everyone who has read and also shared their stories and pic...

No Buddy I haven't but thats a great idea! That was a heck of a weekend on the Pend Oreille. My first trip to the Pend Oreille since I was 15, stayed on the river way too long. My 1st Muskie tournament, meet the Dowdy's, teased Tigers at Silver Lake. Chapter 60 was born, Forever Fishing Washington S...

Good looking Cutt Dood. I think I'll grab the float tube and head out there.We're doing well on the Cutts in the salt near Poulsbo. Had a lot fun at Leland with ya this summer will have to visit Cady next?

Aj's Dad great question on the crooked back. The way the fish is held during unhook and release will cause deformity but not likely that dramatic. I'll do some reasearch but believe FishnFool is on the right track. It is also possible that Pike is a rare " 2008 model, Rockford Bay Fastback " special...

Does anyone want to put the politics aside and just talk some fun and fishing for those Northern Pike? I'll bet you do, heck its winter and cabin fever is just setting in. Have you ventured out to the Pend Oreille lately? Have any good stories, lets hear em. Lures you would like to pass along? Also ...

Yourdaddy, welcome to the hornets nest. Come prepared and informed or you might get stung. Nice first post, your popular already.

I read the blog and I too found it be confusing at best. I'm not sure who hes referring to "some anglers" and "advocates" those whom I'm involved with have never proposed "let nature take its course" as a viable option. You will have to check out Rich's blog to get the full impact. http://www.spokes...

My friends please carefully read the article that came out in the Columbia Basin newspaper. This is the Tribe's press release that came out this fall. If you can read between the "scare tactics" you will find some interesting validation of what is being said in this thread. Let us all remember, a sh...

AJ's Dad! You get it! Follow the money trail and the answers will be found. The proof of a threat just isn't there all the window dressing and lip-service can't hide the fact that this is about MONEY!

Northern Pike are currently classified as both a Game Fish and Nonnative Aquatic Species by the WAC code. According to the Nonnative Aquatic Species classification in WAC the harvesting by nature of the written rules is not allowed without permit, permission and an outlined plan for control which is...
