World Record Pike

The current world record northern pike is a 55 pounder (25kg) caught by Lothar Louis of Germany in 1986. This is a record I believe will be beaten in the near future. Huge pike are being caught throughout Canada and the Europe that could be potential records.

In Canada, at least two Provinces have potential for a future record fish. Both Ontario and Manitoba produce pike over 50 inches each year. Jon and I have seen first hand the huge pike northern Ontario has to offer. Ontario’s current record is just over 42 pounds while Manitoba holds claim to what is perhaps the longest pike ever caught, measuring an estimated 70 inches.

edit: Then again, maybe the next world record pike will come from Italy.

I caught an 80lbs Pike whilst fishing on my rubber dingy. I didn’t have enough line to play the fish properly and each time my line was all out, the fish took me water skiing up and down the lake.Took me 2 nights and a day to land! I was so hungry the final morning that I cooked and ate the fish on my portable BBQ for breakfast with the last little bit of energy I had left.

Cerralvo Island, February 26th 2005

The sky, now turning from a pale grey to a wondrous blue in announcement of the rapidly approaching sun illuminated our mountainous silhouette surroundings. As the sun ascended over the mountain tops the desert awoke reaching upwards with an infinite number of cacti fingers. It was a marvelous spectacle to watch as small flocks of birds darted out of their nests and larger predatory birds appeared soring above. It was as if that single ray of sunshine swept the desert with a breath of extraordinary life.
