COEUR d’ALENE — The Coeur d’Alene Tribe’s northern pike study on Lake Coeur d’Alene just began a few weeks ago, and researchers already have a good number of specimens.
The “Catch for Cash” program was launched by the Tribe at the beginning of October as a way to encourage anglers to catch pike as part of the Tribe’s cutthroat trout predation study, according to Heather Keen, a spokeswoman for the Tribe.
“We are only two weeks into it and it looks like we have about 50 fish turned in,” Keen said. “The first weekend we had nine anglers turn in 25 pike, and this past weekend we had another 25 turned in.”
