Little Red has big toothy critters

[turkdaddy]

Went to the little red today to try for a small mouth or two, but all I caught was 10 nice largemouth 6 kentuckys, and this big chain pickrell.

I caught a pickerell last time I was there..nasty things. Where did you put in at??

[wildkat7]

Anytime I catch one, they become gar food....or racoon food if I am close to the bank. Lose way too many baits because of them.

I HATE those things!! I have been on a rather successful eradication of those toothy, bait stealing, slimey, no good for anything, *$^@@**((^& for several years now.

If there's one in the lake - I'll catch it every time. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one.

wow never seen one before

[wildkat7]

You probably haven't seen them b/c they took your bait. Get a bite..reel down and check...set the hook and snap. There's a pickerel.

I put in at riverside park and went up to the wier. The water was up in the logs on the left side of the river. That is where i caught most of the bass. I did catch a few down by the intake but they were small kentuckys. I caught the toothy thing across form the last dock before you get to the wier. I don't like them but they are fun to catch espically when they start jumping.

[wildkat7]

They are very fun to fight but that's about the only thing good I have to say about them. I caught one between 2-3lbs out of the saline river this year. He jumped completely out of the water at least 5 times....

[turkdaddy]

Thats my experience with them they like to jump ( which I think is pretty ) I think that is why I like to catch them..

[ragin_cajun92]

i haven't caught one of them in a long time

[Eyra1]

Fun to catch...one of the reasons I switched to Terminator spinnerbaits . I can catch them on just about any lake, any where...now, as far as catching a bunch of largemouth and spots, ....

How the blazes did pickerel get in the Little Red? To the best of my knowledge, there are no pickerel in the White River. A few saugers here and there though and some walleye that came thru the dam when they had the flood gates open earlier this year.

[wildkat7]

In my experience, if there are bass around, there will probably be pickerel.

My brother and I went over there this evening, caught a few largemouth, a couple of fat kentuckies, and one fat ugly pickerel..
