"I'd like to remind all you pike hunters out there that I'm still looking for help in collecting information I need to understand the age structure and growth rates of Vermont's northern pike populations. I hope people who harvest pike will take the time (very easy to do, and only about a minute per fish) to remove the cleithral bone, record the information (length, date and water), bag it in a sandwich baggie, and stick it in the freezer. This data is very important to us, and will allow us to understand the needs for northern pike management in Vermont.
I would like to ask pike anglers to visit this web page I have set up http://www.vtfishandwildlife.com/pike.cfm that provides photo and video instructions on how anglers can collect, record, and submit this data from northern pike they harvest. It is a very simple process that would only take a minute or two at the most per fish you catch and keep.
I greatly appreciate your interest and help, if you are able to. If anyone has any questions on this, feel free to get in touch with me at shawn.good@state.vt.us. Thanks again."
Fish on, fish H8 me.
