[quote HockeyMan]I have personally seen this happen. While bringing in a crappie or bluegill I have had pike come out of nowhere and take a swipe at my catch. I can believe it. [/quote]
Had a perch snapped up while reeling in at [url "http://www.bigfishtackle.com/cgi-bin/gforum/gforum.cgi?post=610395;#610395"]Newton[/url]. Managed to land my first Musky on a dinky ol' Sears kiddie pole, Kmart $10 reel, and 8 lb test. No steel leader... just patience. (and luck!) What a rush! Don't know that I ever hooked the Musky - he might have just been holding on tight!
Next week had one bump my boat snatching at the basslings all around me. Need to hit that again! But I've been wanting to try Pineview too.
Those fish are a riot! Just watch your fingers, stringers, and - well, other parts.[shocked]
