Pike Fishing Starts

Just a quick blog to let you know that the pike season starts on Mustang Lake on October 1st. The lake is stuffed with pike and they have not been fished for before so it should be good sport. The biggest caught this year accidentally by a carp angler weighed 16lb. Most of the pike are between 6lb -15lb.
I am allowing sea dead-baits only and to not upset the carp and carp anglers I'm not allowing lures - sorry.
The pike are all over the lake, but pegs 1,4,7 and 14 are clearly the areas where they are stacked up in, because of all the prey fish in the bays.
I have some pictures of some of the pike that were stocked into Mustang along with a few that have been caught by accident on boilies. I had a ten minute go the other evening to test the water and managed two to 12lb on float fished smelt.
Please look after the pike you catch, they're fragile fish and do not like being mishandled or being out from the water for too long. I have also put some special pike nets around the lake, so please use them.

I hope you like the pic's
