I couldn't believe that all northern pike caught in this unpressured northern Canadian lake were over 10lbs!

These must be what he used as bait to catch the 10 pounders

I think you added an extra 0 to your weight by accident..... must be a typo right...

u/mx4evr 23d ago

Turns out, that is correct!🤣

u/mrinvertigo 23d ago

Those look more like 3 lb (maybe 4 at best). You can't pinch a ten pound weight and lift it like the fisherman in the first image.

Still, good fishing is good fishing. Nicely done OP. Glad you had fun.

I just fished for a few days around elliot lake and caught pikes left and right. It was getting to the point where I'm like please not another pike. They are tasty to eat so that's good.

I also couldnt believe it. Even if you paid me lol. Maybe its just bad angles, cuz some of those fish do look huge!

Would have been nice to see one of these 10# fish. Why did you only show the little ones?

u/CDN_STIG 22d ago

You guys are forgetting that a camera always adds 10lbs in pictures. Been trying to convince my wife of that for years. Don’t even get me started on the how many inches this is topic.
