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.
