Welcome to the Idaho record fish books, Timothy Hicks! 

Timothy was fishing on Lake Pend Oreille on June 13 when he landed a 49.75-inch Northern pike. The Post Falls angler’s pike beat out the previous catch-and-release record caught by Scott Blahnik in 2020. Timothy’s pike was a mere 3/4 of an inch longer, earning himself the top spot in the record fish books.
