Nice one Steve... literally a miracle catching a toothy pred like this on that tiny bait ... way to go

Thanks guys.  Yes, he was a line stretcher!  Thankfully he stayed calm for his hook removal and picture.  It is always tricky with pickerel and light (6#) line, but with the dropshot setup, they are mostly hooked on the edge of their mouth.  If I was using jigs, he probably would have bit me off.
