Pike Surprise | Life Below Zero

·Nov 11, 2024

This time of year, the pike are spawning in the shallows. There's a grassy area just up around the corner where I might find some. I haven't caught a pike yet this year, so you never know exactly what you're going to find, but I'm hoping for some good fishing today. This is one of my favorite spots, right in where these trees are.

Living out here, you got to learn a lot about what's going on at different places at different times. One thing I've learned is that if I want to get a fish at this time of year, I go over to this inlet, fishing close to the grass. That's where the spawning is right now.

O ooh ooh ooh ooh, there's a big one right here! There's a real fat pike right beside the canoe. I can see one right there, yep, yep. Let's see if I can get him interested in this.

There's one chasing it! Yep, got him! I got a pike hooked on here! Oh, it's a nice big one pulling me out. It's a nice big pike; I got to be careful! I don't want this one to get away.

Got to watch out for those teeth. Pike have big teeth there. Got it! Look at that fish! Wow, that's going to be lunch and dinner.

Should You Go To University?

I would just say that if you are self-aware enough to realize that you’re sort of middle of the road and you’re not that good, then sure, go to university, get your stamp, try not to be brainwashed, and use it to at least get your first job. But if you’r…
