    I did not make the cut for the second day of the RCL Leech Lake Tournament so J.D. (Niteeye)and I decided to try our luck on Lake Winnie. J.D. hammered a bunch of perch and one small eye. I managed to land this pike which put up quite the fight as it jumped straight out of the water within just a few feet of the boat.

    You must have caught that one while doing dishes?

    I noticed the nice baby blue gloves and figured I had to say somthing smart.

    Can’t stand pike slime not to mention sliced hands on gill plates.

    Steve,

    Those are some fairy nice gloves. You should borrow Suzuki a pair so he can handle his big cats.

    Actually I got them from a guy who works for a window company, they are used for handling glass & they also work good for pulling up anchor rope out of cold water & for handling slimmers.

    Oh, I don’t know. I think those purple ones that Mike W had were a little nicer.

    We’re laughing with you Steve…

    Steve…the bunch is brutal!

    I hope the word never gets out that I use a glove to put on nightcrawlers…I’d never hear the end of it….

    Ps your glove matches the hat…good taste…
