I'm gettin' kinda PO'd at these northern pike

I hope I never catch another one...at least not while I'm trolling.

Today I had four lines off the back of the boat. An NP hit the righthand-most rig which, of course, is an ultralight with 4 lb test (and a little micro-tube; not even a snack for an NP). To make a long story short, he quickly wound the line around all three other lines and created a mess that took me an hour to unknot. At least he didn't get near the prop.

At first I thought his hit was going to be a fun fight, but as soon as he got near the other lines I knew it was going to be trouble.
