What Comes Out the Belly of This Pike Shows Exactly Why Big Lures Work

Big pike are some of the most carnivorous fish in freshwater, and this video proves it!

When it comes to chasing pike on fly or conventional tackle, big lures are often the ticket. In fact, most predatory fish will commit to baits that are surprisingly larger that average. As long as the bait gives the impression that it is a weak or injured fish, you can bet that a predator is going to have a go at it!

Watch the video below to see what this fish had for dinner!

One of the cool things about this video is that you can hear one of the anglers make a comment about the possibility of a turtle being inside the fish. That goes to show that you never know what you will find in a fish's stomach!
