I one time got a pretty fat 40"er through a 6" hole. Problem was that every time I got him coming up the hole I would get a kind of pump effect, where the pike would plug up the hole and you'd be bringing all the water up with him. With only 10lb line on I eventually ended up reaching down the hole and feeling around for his gill, getting chomped pretty good in the process, and eventually hoisting him up the hole.
After the fact I realised that I had run a pretty big risk, not sure what I would have done if the pike had got me with the hook and I couldn't get him up the hole, I might have been stuck there with my arm shoved down the hole.
