I was in Yellowknife for work in September and the fella up there said someone he knew caught this up there. I'm not sure he said a weight for it but I do remember him saying the one it is eating (the one they actually hooked) was in the 8 to 10 pound range.

Its a &*% pig. Anyone see these pics before??

This pic has shown up on every fishing website and forum around. It has been caught in Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Lake-of-the-Woods, all the great lakes, Wisconsin, Minnesota, NWT, Yukon, and I think even the Glenmore Resevoir in Calgary.
The article (and pictures) were in Esox Angler Magazine this summer and the fish was caught in Holland. It is a pike, but the european strain or sub-species grow to mammoth proportions. Pike this size are caught regularily over there.

I dont see how some dispute C&R.....
That fish has been caught well over a 1000 times in the last 2 years.

On a side note, he is correct! The fish is from Holland.
Iam a regular reader of Esox and it was indeed in there.
Not to mention Im Dutch.....I know another woodenhead
when I see one.


Theres also a good article of giant Scottish pike in one of
last years magz......I think it was May. Id tell you exactly what
month but the wife chucked it out of my bathroom stash last month.
