| Here's a picture of a northern pike I found (it's not my own picture), it's caught in a lake in Sweden and has an awesome pattern on the belly. I've seen pictures of other similar pike before but this one has the most beautiful belly pattern I've seen to date. I've never caught one like this myself though, has anyone here ever done that? And can musky get similar belly patterns too, or only northern pike?

| .....and less stinky than a gar. Hungry little fish, looks like Swedish pike have the same death wish as US pike do in regards to the size of bait they think they can eat. |

| Those belly markings look kinda like the belly of a bullfrog... maybe its a hybrid |

| If that's the belly, what does the back look like? Maybe it got flipped upsidedown in the mold? |
