I will rarely go after Pike, but if one hits my line, I'm not going to drop the line. I’m the same way. I will rarely go after Pike, but if one hits my line, I’m not going to drop the line.

I'm not much for fishing for toothy guys, but I not going to not catch them if they bite. That’s the great part of fishing, there is always a first to be had and a great story to go with it.

It has monster Northern pike, so it's not surprising you got one off a dock. Mounting such a fish would have been an expensive proposition, so it's not surprising your parents refused. I would love to see a picture! Yes, Leech Lake is a very famous lake in Northern Minnesota (at least among Minnesotans). It has monster Northern pike, so it’s not surprising you got one off a dock.

I was fishing OFF A DOCK at a place I remember being called Leech Lake. Is there such a place? I bugged and bugged my parents to stuff & mount the fish, but they (wisely) refused. They have a photo of me with the thing somewhere...I should dig it up next time I'm home. I landed a northern that I recall being about this size when I was a teenager.
