Nice job landing those pike on the plastics. I catch a lot of pike on plastics. As you probably know, they can make short work of monofilament line with those sharp teeth. You can save a lot of gear if you tie on a 30lb or larger flourocaarbon leader and attach that to your worm hooks or spinner baits. They have a tougher time biting through the flouro and it doesn't show up as much as if you used a steel leader. Make sure your East side slough is farther north than the riverbend area unless it is Campbell. Between the bridge at Usk and Riverbend, the only slough non tribal fishermen can fish on that side is Campbell slough. I was up there that day as well. We found the pike but not the big one like you got. Nice going. Happy fishing
