Northern pike often consume prey half their own
length including minnows, frogs, crayfish, mice, muskrats, ducklings,
and even their own kind. Arctic pike may live for up to 25 years.
Primarily a freshwater fish, it occurs in most of Canada with
the exception of the Maritime Provinces. The angler record for
North America is 21 kg in weight and 133.3 cm in length. Unlike
the muskellunge, hooked pike fight in the depths rather than
leaping from the water. As a sport fish, it is usually taken
by trolling with large spoons, plugs, large bait fish, or worm
harness.
Northern Pike are widely distributed in Ontario.
Historically they have not been found in the Haliburton Highlands
and the Kawartha Lakes of central Ontario. However, northern pike
are expanding their range and can now be found in the northwestern
corner of the Kawarthas. In a lake environment pike prefer weedy
bays, estuaries and shoals as spring and summer habitat. During
cool autumn days pike are most likely to seek deeper water. Northern
Pike are aggressive feeders through spring, summer and fall and
continue to be caught through the ice during the winter months.
Northern Pike will take just about every kind of live and artificial
bait, including very large streamer flies.
