No way it's 44lbs... My uncle caught this 43" pike in Keeley Lake yesterday and it weighed in at 21 lbs.

(Not a great photo of length, as it kind of curled a bit)

Fully agree with this here, a gorgeous pike for sure.

Fact of online fish forums, posters over stated the weight. Critics under state the weight.

It is a great fish, a real shame that they had to post an aledged weight. Pic alone we all would be congratulating and celebrating a fish of that stature instead of this.
