Eyes bigger than her belly

[Harry H]

Unfortunately this one was found dead in the margin after an inspection to try and find a cause of her demise I could not see any external damage so looked in its mouth to see what I thought was a stick.The result of a tug with a pair of forceps.

Blimey.

Good afternoon Harry H, :hat:

Well done!

I now have evidence to show to people who don't believe me when I tell them I,ve seen Pike attack waterfowl.

[Harry H]

Apparently quite a common occurrence on this water as it only contains large carp and pike so its either of these or water fowl for dinner.They also have big heads compared to others to cope with the bigger prey,I have also seen this in eels.

[Julian]

How big would you estimate that pike to be?

[Harry H]

She was 17 1/2lb before the moorhen was discovered.

[Beresford]

I've seen a pike take moorhen chick.

[Mario]

your saying it choked to death

[Loop Erimder]

Is it me or does that pike have a really big head
