 Derrick with baby pike

Derrick Rothermel of Kamloops showing us boys on the prairie what a "Baby" pike of 48" in length from Watson Lake in the Yukon Territories looks like. The dog in the background is showing proper respect of this "Baby". You should see this ones "Mommy"

A world of firsts.  ( Stop the presses )   read story below
 

Mama what a big mouth you have Now where are my bifocals when I need them
Clive's smile This is a story of earth shattering importance and worse yet I have to be a witness to the event.  On Sat. May 20, when a certain individual should have been guiding, he was fishing instead of paying attention to our guest.  His story is that he was doing survey work to find a new fishing spot.  Well, the Clive Schaupmeyer finally managed to catch his first 20 lb pike ( length 41" ) in 43 years of fishing on a fly.  He did not do the proper type guide thing and turn the rod over to his guest.  All the guest, Gerry Mezei,  and I saw was white of an ear to ear smile.  Our guest and I were very happy to witness this event.  You will notice that in the upper photo Clive has some doubts about reaching in that little mouth to retrieve his precious Great Pumpkin fly.  Happy to report both fish and fishermen survived the ordeal very well.  Again congratulations on joining the 20 lb club. More pictures of event and our guest's success to follow.

 
Gerry's First Pike
 Gerrys Second Pike

Our Guest, Gerry Mezei, who so graciously put up with the antic of his guides displays his first fly rod caught pike.   From the smile on his face I doubt whether it will be his last time at trying for the fresh water sharks.

 
 
 
 
Not the one with big fishJust so you know I do exist (  This is me , Ken ( your editior ) - first picture on myself on the web ever ) , being the good guide and host that I am I let the other fellows have a crack at the big fish.  HA, if you believe that line, have I got a deal for you.
