MY NAME IS JOSH CARDIGAN AND I'VE BEEN WRITING SONNETS TO THE PIKE FOR YEARS.

                    The joy of touching a fresh Pike has captured our hearts since time immemorial. 

                The smell, the texture of the skin, the wide mouth,

                so open, so ready. And then the joy as we pull back. Knowing she took our bait.

                We tempted her and she came to us.

                                     SONNET TO MY LOVE, THE PIKE BY JOSH CARDIGAN...

                                                                            TITLED...

                                                                 'OH PIKE MY LADY'.

                                         Oh Pike My Lady, in your deepness, all hidden among the secrets of still waters.

                                         Me, not a fish, a simple man who wants you, now, near, and completely.

                                         Come to me my lovely.

                                         Let me cup your underbelly, swollen with spawn and the good feeding times.

                                         Let Me fertilise you.....
