When I'm not behind the camera, I'm usually fishing for big northern pike, and I've caught lots of them over 10 pounds - including a 19 and a 17, both from Long Pond in Belgrade. The action can be slow - maybe two or three flags a day. But it's well worth it when one of those flags turns out to be a monster. That was the case this past Saturday - landing the biggest northern I've ever caught (to be fair, my dad hooked and played the fish out for the first 20 minutes, I finished the last 10 minutes and grabbed the fish under the gills). She was 43 inches long and 20 inches around. On a scale that evening, she was an even twenty-two pounds.
