The one that didn’t get away

This is NOT a fish story !  This is a new record Northern Pike in Canada .. He caught it on Turtle Lake.
Check this thing out.. The man (in the photos below), was fishing and caught a 36″ Pike..
As he was reeling it in, a 56″ – 55 lb Pike tried to eat it !!!!!

He landed them both in the same net. The last picture is unreal.

  1. This is not a “new” event – it happened a few years ago. Big Pike eating “caught” fish is not unusual – it has happened to me with Walleye/Pike. One the Pike bites they DON”T LET GO !!!!

  2. Gonzopozo (above) is correct, there’s nothing unusual about pike going for fish that are being reeled in & that includes other pike. I fish for pike myself & on many occasions I’ve caught one only to have it snatched off the line or bitten in half by a bigger pike as I’m trying to land it. I remember these photographs from a couple of years back & people trying to claim the location caused quite a stir, it was eventually narrowed down to either Holland or Denmark & NOT Canada.

    Have some big pike photos 🙂
