My stepdaughter caught a juvenile pike yesterday. I've never seen markings quite like these. Very neat
Cool markings
Re: Cool markings
I have caught a few like that on the Rideau system. I always considered them a Tiger Musky, or natural cross between pike and musky.
Cool looking fish for sure.

That's different. Nice catch!
Re: Cool markings
A rare catch. It is a cross between a pike and Musky.
I've never caught one but a guy at work has.
Nice looking fish.

Defiantly a Pike and congrats on a nice catch.
Re: Cool markings
Looks alot like a hybrid. But without checking the pores or cheek scales, it would be inconclusive. So I wouldn't say definitely...

Re: Cool markings
Hey there
That is a nice paint job on that fish! Hopefully she was brave enough to get a pic with it, I’ve heard those get called different things; chain pike? Grass pike? Those handles are fairly old school mind you.
For reference, here is a “hybrid” or Tiger Musky.

Re: Cool markings
Why is that a pic of a pike?
Looks very different from the posted identification image.
