fish tank.

Took a 100 gallon tank. Put a northern pike and a walleye in it. Put a scoop of fathead minnows in. Northern ate 6 in about 2 minutes. Walleye ate nothing. Northern has almost doubled in girth as seen in this video.

wow. you guys really are borderline retarded... but it is funny to watch. Never seen people defend a fish everyone hates so much in my life

Northern: While not proven to be "too many", harvest anyway- a definite threat to muskie and compete for food sources with walleye. Desire smaller numbers, bigger fish. Propose opening up ice-fishing for higher harvest and for improving winter economy.

Actually northern pikes aren't parasites at all. You can find the same fact from official researches. Fortunately i know only finnish ones on Net but you'll find something in english too if you try, i'm sure.

and northern pike in most lakes are not parasites ther fish. so u need to do a little bit of research and stop killing all the pike

[thesupaflies]

how long is your pike? 1.5 feet?

love the rocks and soil ... very natural ! congratulations !

[whwoowee]

Those fish should be in a much BIGGER tank!!! Or better yet a lake!!!

[morgantheman]

when getting a tank for a pike do i wanna get length or height? would i also need more then 100 gallon tank?

How would you feed these pikes? I mean I'm thinking of catching myself one before winter but where will I get my food? buying goldfishes everyday is way too expensive.

Well the Northern Pike is definitely not a junk fish and the DNR for WI does NOT recommend keeping all/trashing all Northerns caught. As an angler it is your responsibility to know the laws of the land/lake and follow them.

Did you know that the WI DNR contracts out to hatcheries to give them Northerns to stock various lakes with? You don't do that with a parasite fish. Northerns are NATIVE to these northern waters, they are a fun gamefish that are specifically targeted by anglers.

you need more bottom cover like, branches, weeds etc. it makes the fish funner to watch and they are much more active because they can adapt easier

either way, there is way too little room for a fish this size in that tank.

get some cover in there dude....
