I've been fishing here for most of my life and my biggest Ontario pike - out of the thousands I've caugh - was 40" even. This is an Eastern Ontario "trophy" pike. It's pathetic. And even moreso when you consider that the average pike around here is 22".

No foresight + no hindsight = fuming.

Use any length and girth to weight calculator (or ratio formula), and also from personal experience, a 3lb pike is usually in the 21-24" range. An 18" pike is usually in the 1.5lb range.

I know anglers lie (I don't ), but that's just stretching the truth too far. Just trying to keep you honest.
