fisherguy Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Re: Hotdogs for ice pike I have used hotdogs as bait in summer when i ran out of other baits and gaught a few pike and walleye. I have not heard of them for winter pike, though a pike will eat anything it can fit in its mouth if it is hungry. I am sceptical about them working better than minnows, or jigging lures.

BowJoe Posted December 28, 2005 Report Share Posted December 28, 2005 Re: Hotdogs for ice pike That's friggin hilarious. A friend I know was fishing a log for crappie and two guys from Chicago come up next to him on the bank only 3 or four feet on each side and started casting exactly where he was. They started making comments like they were looking for trouble and intimidating him. He left and came back a few days later. What jerks. He is a very nice guy too. Seems people have no respect for anyone anymore. I have had people do the same thing to me while I was hunting in my ladder stand that had been there for a month or more and then cuss me because they either walked in on me or I walked in on them. Crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
