Pike facts

As the pike is one of my absolute favorite target species, I wanted to find out what it’s called in other countries around the world. 

While northern pike have an average length of about 17 to 25 inches and an average weight of 2 to 5 pounds, they can reach lengths of more than 50 inches and weights of 55 to 60lb. European pike are generally somewhat bigger than pike found in North America.
