Gem…are you sure you ain’t John Gierach in disguise? 
heh…heh heh…yeah I am real sure. Cause I don’t know him or what he looks like. Heard the name a lot though. I sure would like to catch a pike like you got. Have a pic of a 34.5 inch one. Don’t know what he weighed…maybe I go look fer the pic…nah…it not even uploaded to photobuckty.
But congrats to you for that pike and tks for giving us a look at it.
