Still a few big pike but almost no smaller pike in their data(that could be in part due to the netting procedure but it doesn't look good, the previous netting data looked similar too).
Touchwood shows low to average numbers for both pike and walleye. What I call average is nowhere near what fisheries wants to see in these lakes though.

Has nothing to do with the Walleye. Unfortunately regulations have had keep 1 over 100cm for Pike for ever on Siebert which has essentially removed most of the big breeding hens out of the lake. It will take many years for it to recover.
