that fish went back perfectly, if it was the bit of blood under the gill, then i dont know how to catch a pike without a hook? if you do enlighten me please good man

 

 

It can be done but its not very humane, one for survival rather than sport. They call it gorge fishing I think, instead of a hook you use a bit of bone or whittled wood tied in the centre like a kids rope swing and then bury it in the bait and let the fish swallow it before giving it a yank and getting the wood wedged in its throat / guts. Only ever seen it in books. Stick to your hooks Conor!! Nice pics by the way, good dangling, tight lines.
