Pike Bites Fisherman
This is a video I just threw together from August 31st, 2012. I was throwing topwater for bass with good success when I was blown up 3 times in the same area. I was frustrated in not getting the hooks into this fish so I grabbed my swim jig and casted into the area, it only took seconds til I hooked into this fish. It was a Northern Pike that I should have worn out a little more because when it got boat side, it jumped fully out of the water, bit my hand, and stole my swim jig. Leaving me with broken Flouro and a bloody hand. Here's the video:

I go up to Minnesota during the summer and last year I caught my first muskie on a crawdad. What lure are you using in your video ?

Re: Pike Bites Fisherman
That looks fun! Catching fish after fish after fish. Nice work my first impression was a hook accident, but seems the pike teeth are razor sharp.

Re: Pike Bites Fisherman
Yes, their teeth definitely are sharp!!! I was using a topwater frog for all the fish, except for that pike that bit me - I was using a Swim jig.
