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?

That's absolutely stunning; kind of reminiscent of a spotted gar, except much prettier!

.....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.

Snapped! The moment a fearsome pike is swallowed whole by a ravenous cormorant

I hate those birds. They eat everything in their path.

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?
