Don`t know about my grammar but I gues you get the point. The main thing is that you find all the topics that count. By this I mean all the pike fishing topics!

Perhaps you'd like to share the mmmmurricano problemos with us.... So we can prepare ourselves from the likes of you... We can handle all the pike slime and one or two regular yankees... but there's a limit...

Btw, there seems to be another fellow from your area, native finny boy tho, living in Litchfield, MN, nick: Heikinheimo. Give the poor student a buzz... Chances are he's living close to you...

Yep Litchfields about a hour away have him PM me, We (merican's) have created websites that are almost completely null of fun and the truth, where the administrators and moderators have sold their souls to corporations for cash for every hit on their site, so if your not one of the chosen ones or pet projects your posts will be altered or deleted if you have a negative comment or a problem with any sponsors products, a couple years ago if you posted a picture of a bait you made they would delete the post unless you gave them baits or paid to advertise, one friend of mine spent thousands of dollars advertising and he still got ridiculed as a self promoter for mentioning the name of his bait at their site, coming here and seeing your baits and fish is very refreshing to me, I just wish Americans held Pike with the same regard as Europeans and some Canadian Provence's do, they are great fish and so much fun to catch, but we insist on killing them all or as some consider them a trash fish, it makes me sick.

You've discribed half of Finnish fishing sites/forums there, same problem...

No matter what some people here say, there's a great number of us fisherMEN here who appriciate pike.

Just move this from paskanjauhanta to some decent forum area, then everyone will be happy.

@Muskiefool: I can imagine how difficult would it be if you had to watch your every word & comment for cencorship, even just on a public fishing forum.

I would love to respond to that one last one but in this land of freedom and opportunity I may end up in prison for 5 years in doing so

Here is a pic of the largest Pike we got last year fishing a glide bait.

Do you guys use as much overkill as we do for your tackle we commonly use 80-100 pound test and 150+ pound leaders with a trend to 7-8.5 foot rods

Viesti Kirjoittaja **ma^ko** » 02:03:10 06.04.2007

Lines for pikefishing are usually 20 to 65lb "superlines", rods from 6' to 10'. I think that nobody in finland uses 80-100lb lines for pike.

I do, got 80lbs PP on my Calcutta 400b. I'll agree it's over kill but it dosent really effect my fishing so.... (exept that i can pull the boat whit the line if i get my lure snagged)

I'm not having experience from fishing in the States or Canada, but if you're planning a trip to Finland, please get familiar with "Foreigner's guide to Finland": http://www.ilmatar.net/~np/misc/foreign ... nland.html

Whats considered a true collectible bait over there guys, here some that are just a few years old command ultra high prices and some 10-15 cm Pike Muskie baits that are 80 years old attract the same prices, for instance the hand made Le Lure Bonnet to a 5 hook Heddon topwater that the Le Lure was copied from command the same price, some as high as $7-800.00+ each, is it only Americans that are crazy enough to drop that kinda money on a bait
