big pike in canada

steyrman2

A mate of mine in Canada has just sent me this photo of a fish caught in his local lake, I have caught a few pike but nothing this size.

For those of you who don't know where Kirkland Lake is, it's a beautiful mining town and lake in Northern Ontario.....probably the biggest nearby center would be North Bay or Timmins.

It’s a new record Northern Pike in Canada. The man 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

That is insane! I presume he can't claim it as a record though - not being caught by hook in mouth etc etc... ?

Great pike ok.
Those snaps have been around for a while now. I have seen them on other boards a year or two ago.

Your mate is telling fishy tales.
Those pics have been doing the rounds for years...

Here is an interview with the captor Ewout Blom in the Netherlands:

There was a big pike caught in Canada at about the same time, but not so heavy, as tha one was a thinner build.

The third pic was taken in European waters as well. Will try to find the link to the story about the pic.

LOL this thread is funny... fishermen and their stories....heard so many 'fishy' stories over the years now i always say believe 99% of what you see with your own eyes (in the flesh), and 1% of what you hear with your own ears (or read on the net for that matter)...........
