This is some amazing footage! I'd love to see your test rig set up! We have lots of pike here in Wisconsin and they are very aggressive in the summer months. They are definitely and canabalistic fish just like large mouth bass. Anything they can fit in their mouths is fair game. I agree as well they will evaluate a competitor and take them out as well regardless of if it's another pike.
Great observation. If there were no weights on the front of the lures like you had them ,they would have had better action. If a lure has more action then the other then I think the lure with the better action would be struck first. But with your experiment they both had not much wobble in the lures. It was very interesting . Thank you for the video. Cheers from Canada.
Another great thought provoking video, and very well produced. A friend of mine used to use Jack pike for live bait's and had some good results. So yes I agree that Pike are Cannibals.
Great video and very enjoyable to watch. To me there is only Pike fishing that is interrupted with seasonal forays for Perch. Of all fish the Pike is the Rock N Roll of fishing, swagger, attitude and always ready to rumble if you annoy it enough.
Amazed to see a pike grab a weeded lure. Never once in all my years have I had an 'enquiry' from a lure or a dead-bait that's been weeded to the least degree.
The pike seem to not attack the lure pike if the lure pike was behind the other lure, when the lures were side by side the real pike would attack the pike lure almost like saying "you look like friends and that is not allowed" just a coincidence but strange no the less. Great video.
Hi great video .I agree 100% with your conclusions .I have used the Savage Gear line through pike in the larger sizes with great effect last year (2019) on our local canals over here in the UK.
Great video. Thanks for the translation. I get alot more pike on my local canal than every other fisherman. I use the fox replicant pike soft lures. They love to smash into its head. So much I had to put a hook on to catch them as they never swallowed it. Just a hit and run on the gills.
I'm an avid Musky fisherman but nothing compares of the beauty look off the Great Northern Pike. This is the first time I've ever seen footage like this. Great camera views. How did you do that?
i think they are genuine cannibals. I don't think that there is a clear reason for the pike to attack other pike, it's just beneficial in both ways - consuming and eliminating rivals at the same time. Why wouldn't natural selection reward such a behaviour? I think that for the pike itself, it don't understand the difference between cousin and baitfish. As long as it behaves like food it is food and the pike attacks on instinct.
You are are probably the most intelligent answer I've ever seen seen on pike and Muskellunge behavior!. They are born thousands at a time and have to adapt instantly!!. They're behavior is bonded through evolution and time! But I still love to fish them for sport and nothing else like other game fishing
@idoj654123 Lions only eat the cubs of other males when they have asserted there dominance.To get rid of any gene pool of the last leader of the pack...
This is my first time viewing your channel and I gotta say that was well done, in response to the question at the end i would say maybe a 360 view if possible
It looks like Mr Pike preferred Tommy the trout to some extent. I fly fish pike and I have a theory that blue, white and silver coloration initiate strikes vs the olive and brown more natural fish coloration. Pike and musky when observed near the surface on a sunny day in fact appear blue and white maybe because of light refraction or something but regardless I think color has a lot to do with pike strikes vs shape of the bait. I agree size has a lot to do with strikes as well but I'm not sure if they specifically target other pike. It could be they're predisposed to striking more slender baitfish like trout and other pike vs more "rounder" fish like perch and carp species. A very interesting experiment. Thanks for the cool video!
Some great footage. Reminds me of Canadian Northern Pike. As you'd be reeling one in, you'd see another following it. It was pretty wild. Freaked me out as a child on those fishing trips seeing that.
i live in Northern Ontario Canada lots of Pike here i really like to fish for them magnificent great gamefish just think they want to eat all that is available enjoyed your video
Very interesting video. The 2 most popular lures seemed to be the pike and the trout, I wonder if when they strike the pike lure it is triggering a territorial response and the trout strikes are more of a feeding response due to that species hi fat/ caloric density. It reminded me of sharks that target hi fat species (seals) yet seem un-interested in other seemingly easier species to catch. The underwater film quality is great.
I would say that this was a very interesting video, informative as well. I truly enjoyed it. It was great watching the pike attack the lures in slow motion. Most interesting was how quickly they could determine the lures were not the soft bodies of real fish. The whole video was great , i gave you thumbs up and subscribed, I want to see what you already did and what you are doing in the future. Well Wishes Sir
Pike here in Wisconsin are like sharks, eating anything they can grab. Ducks, fish, turtles, frogs, etc... I prefer live bait, especially where there is fishing pressure. I have pulled several pike at a time from a spot that gets hammered by fishermen daily using artificials. There are stories of local muskies ambushing squirrels by putting acorns on an emergent stump a few feet from shore and waiting for the squirrels to jump to the stump. I have heard the same story from multiple fishermen who did not know each other. I also know that chipmunks and small squirrels make awesome bait. ; )
I just watched your video for the first time. You did a great job and will be watching more of your videos. And yes pike are territorial, seeing as where there live is a narrow canal is not surprising they're all relatively the same size. I'm more surprised as how many you came across w your lures. Keep up the good work.... I understand this was four years ago and have yet to watch any of your other content. But none the less!, If you're still alive, good work ol chap.
It also looked like "Mike the Pike" had some 'paper clips' hanging on the underside that were clicking and attracting their attention. It almost looked like they were curious about the clips and not interested about the potential food after noticing the clips. It definitely looked as if they would attack the bait, until they noticed the clips and became curious about the clips. But, I've noticed that all fish are cannibalistic. Big fish will eat smaller fish. They have a very simple attitude about life. "Can I eat it or will it eat me?" I once saw a big Flathead Catfish (over 30 inches) with a Big Blue Catfish hanging out of it's mouth. The big Blue was only about 3 inches shorter than the Flathead. Personally, I don't know how he kept from choking.
Amazing film, I had some very good jack pack imitations made by abu of sweden from the early 1980s , they were superb baits I took many pike over 20lbs with them, but these lures you have are on a different level of realism looks like you will have seriously good fishing with the hooks on!
Your videos seem to show that they definately prefer a good trout dinner over a competitor. But the rest of the time, they were taking out future competition. It's interesting how much they examine the bait before making their decision to strike. One seemed very curious as to what the bait pike 'Mike' was chasing and should he go after the clicking thing Mike was chasing. I would like to see some video where 'Mike' suddenly sees his attacker and 'tries' to escspe.
Same thing ice fishing I hang huge shiners and bite off there tail. I got a 38 38.50 and 39.50 inch pike on crippled bait. Fish in under 4 ft deep next to shore in all of February. In Wisconsin at least.
7:54 this fish seems to be rly careful and almost intelligent checking the lures, such fish will be the fish of the future cause they have a evolutionary advantage awesome video btw! i dont get why it has more dislikes than other fishing videos ist it because there is no hook or what lol its still interesting and dont need to hurt the fish if u only want bite reaction good job
I think the pike were checking out the bigger lures much more closely to see what the lures had in their 'mouths' than checking out the lures itself. They solely seemed to focus on the clips and lips on the big lures
This is a great video. I am just restarting fishing, pike too and I've heard they are cannibals and your video proofs they are. For me this means that I will buy new lures in pike too! I will tell you if it was successful and if there were differences Thank you!
It was interesting to see that first they struck the lure perhaps by color or size but then they’d just follow the lure. I think if you put some jerking motion on it they’d hit even harder. Great video. Love Pike
Well love the work, was wondering do you go outside Dublin at all lots of lovely loughs n rivers in co Fermanagh hint hint not to mention the erne system
Been using the same lure for months with no luck changed to same lure in pike pattern after watching this ,haven't blanked yet, Berkley juke shallow in pike 👍👌
Love this. Keep up this interesting work i only imagined as a kid. I am interested in behaviours or perch, loach, tench, carp, sculpin,etc. In the usa there are paddlefish.... So many species and interesting international waters.
Interesting footage and opinions. The real pike predators may appear to be "thick-heads", but are not stupid. Many appeared to pursue the lures but back off without attacking. They seemed to sense the lure was artificial. Have you or anybody tried adding scent of real fish to these lures? Rubbing the lure in fish oil, or similar?
excellent video i do not fish for pike but no matter what fish i catch when bringing the fish to my net if there is pike around they tend to go for the fish that i have caught .also they attack the fish in my keep net . good work and i hope to see more of your videos .
I'm just start to pike fish n have only caught one up to now this is very interesting n I will be try a pike lure to see if it bring me more bits, great experiment.
We've found that bigger lures attract bigger pike. But to catch them you fish close to the prop wash the motor attacks them. If your after smaller pike use smaller lures a fish 100' or so behind the boat. The prop noise seems to spook them.
Great video I knew Pike eat other Pike but this proves it. It would be interesting to see if you could drag live perch or suckers behind the boat and let the pike eat them with some type of quick release system
I'm pretty sure even a small burst of speed, by the fish (or angler in this case - trolling any of these lures) would have encouraged an immediate instinctive attack
I have a trout lure that I always bring with me, if all else fails I get him out and results 8/10 times, never a big one but usually 5/10 pounds and saves going home on a blank. Great videos 👍👍👍
Pike definitely have cannibalistic behaviours. I fish the pristine hinterland of Northern Ontario, Canada. A place of towering boreal giants and untouched, pure waters harboring massive denizens of the freshwater deeps. I have caught more than my share of both smaller to larger pike up to 112 cm with cannibalized pike in the stomachs. I was always amazed at the gastral capacity of pike, that is, with another pike inside at about 3/4 of its hosts length. These fish are lightning-fast super-predators and if they were to be the size of a a great white, there would be NO great whites in existence...that's if they somehow shared the same water. Also, speaking from experience, always use pliers to remove hooks. I have the battle scars to prove my point.
The only thing I've noticed is that big pike prefer big lures. I've fished with live pike, perch and roach as bait and all attract strikes but size seem to be a big factor. I've seen a 2 kg pike attack a hooked 1 kg pike and I'm not sure if it's because of eliminating competition or just attacking something that behave in a distressed manner.

Great video! Thank you for narrating over top of the original footage in English for those of us who speak English only. :)
+1
Thank you so much for the translated audio
In my experience Pike will pretty much eat anything it can fit in its jaws, be it bird, mammal, fish or amphibian.
The pike starting getting suspicious at the end there...

They are definitely and canabalistic fish just like large mouth bass. Anything they can fit in their mouths is fair game.

That was very entertaining and crystal clear video. Thank you.
Great observation. If there were no weights on the front of the lures like you had them ,they would have had better action.

Northerns and musky are extremely territorial, I have caught both species where they have the scars of others on them.
the speed and acceleration at which they lunge is spectacular, . . . especially considering the water drag and resistance !
Fascinating
Interesting to see how fast the pike realize that the lure is a fake... almost instantly they spit it out. Great video. Thumbs up!!
Amazing footage, pike really are formidable hunters.
Another great thought provoking video, and very well produced.
A friend of mine used to use Jack pike for live bait's and had some good results.
So yes I agree that Pike are Cannibals.

Great video. Awesome to watch and I really enjoyed this. Thank you

😁😳
I'm an avid Musky fisherman but nothing compares of the beauty look off the Great Northern Pike. This is the first time I've ever seen footage like this. Great camera views. How did you do that?
The pike at 7:45 that followed like a minute Just wantend a m8 😭
I think that was competitive behavior in the fish. Neither seemed very interested until they noticed the other pike.
i think they are genuine cannibals. I don't think that there is a clear reason for the pike to attack other pike, it's just beneficial in both ways - consuming and eliminating rivals at the same time. Why wouldn't natural selection reward such a behaviour?

Love the naming of the lures 👍
awsome video:) great job! keep up the good work:)

Pike are awesome and so fun to catch. Im near Toronto and yeah the Pike fishing is decent but it gets better the further north u go. 👍
Love fishing Pike in Michigan, wish they got as big here as in Canada.

Are you sure this is the Grand Canal? I didn't see a single shopping cart!

Pike eat pike for sure, also you do videos on how you make these videos. They are just soo good! Well done sir!

Nice job !!! Love the footage.
Enjoyed a full-watch.👍🏽🙂
Nice film and beautiful pikes. 👍🏻
I goth the impression that the Pike were more interested in the lures that waggled more. As I would expect.
Amazing film, I had some very good jack pack imitations made by abu of sweden from the early 1980s , they were superb baits I took many pike over 20lbs with them, but these lures you have are on a different level of realism looks like you will have seriously good fishing with the hooks on!
Your videos seem to show that they definately prefer a good trout dinner over a competitor. But the rest of the time, they were taking out future competition. It's interesting how much they examine the bait before making their decision to strike. One seemed very curious as to what the bait pike 'Mike' was chasing and should he go after the clicking thing Mike was chasing. I would like to see some video where 'Mike' suddenly sees his attacker and 'tries' to escspe.
Blimey... Certainly no shortage of Pike in that stretch of water !! Glad I ain't a fish :O)
Man! Really cool content! Thanks! Just subscribed. Charging my phone to go through your video's now..

They look like they are more interested in what was hanging under the pike?
Same thing ice fishing I hang huge shiners and bite off there tail. I got a 38 38.50 and 39.50 inch pike on crippled bait. Fish in under 4 ft deep next to shore in all of February. In Wisconsin at least.
7:54 this fish seems to be rly careful and almost intelligent checking the lures, such fish will be the fish of the future cause they have a evolutionary advantage
awesome video btw! i dont get why it has more dislikes than other fishing videos ist it because there is no hook or what lol its still interesting and dont need to hurt the fish if u only want bite reaction good job
I think the pike were checking out the bigger lures much more closely to see what the lures had in their 'mouths' than checking out the lures itself. They solely seemed to focus on the clips and lips on the big lures
This is sooo cool. Please make more. I like the hookless idea.
Outstanding footage of the pike's natural behaviours.fanstatic filming by yourself.BLUE PLANET NEXT.💯🌍🌎🌏
This is a great video. I am just restarting fishing, pike too and I've heard they are cannibals and your video proofs they are. For me this means that I will buy new lures in pike too! I will tell you if it was successful and if there were differences Thank you!
It was interesting to see that first they struck the lure perhaps by color or size but then they’d just follow the lure. I think if you put some jerking motion on it they’d hit even harder.
Great video. Love Pike
The one around 6:30 made a pretty good go of swallowing that lure! I didn't realise pike were so fast till now, either - scary buggers.
Well love the work, was wondering do you go outside Dublin at all lots of lovely loughs n rivers in co Fermanagh hint hint not to mention the erne system
Been using the same lure for months with no luck changed to same lure in pike pattern after watching this ,haven't blanked yet, Berkley juke shallow in pike 👍👌
thanks for sharing this video, verry interesting. What i found interesting is that pike can follow such a long time before attacking.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Awesome video!
Well they are quite smart, could realize the fish is not real
Love this. Keep up this interesting work i only imagined as a kid. I am interested in behaviours or perch, loach, tench, carp, sculpin,etc. In the usa there are paddlefish.... So many species and interesting international waters.
I think that cannibalism could be a quite good explanation
9:48 - wonder what it was doing . . . . . testing for real vs fake ?
Are they THAT clever
big big canal pike here in Ireland I have see 30lb pike in canal
I'm happy to know pike are still in Ireland! Grandpa used to tell me about 45 inchers! Don't know for sure. But I believe they're there!
Interesting footage and opinions. The real pike predators may appear to be "thick-heads", but are not stupid. Many appeared to pursue the lures but back off without attacking. They seemed to sense the lure was artificial. Have you or anybody tried adding scent of real fish to these lures? Rubbing the lure in fish oil, or similar?
Absolutely great to see the pike attack under water.
I'm not catching pike for months, this guy has 2 pikes on the leash for a minute
Good science, sir! Well done.
excellent video i do not fish for pike but no matter what fish i catch when bringing the fish to my net if there is pike around they tend to go for the fish that i have caught .also they attack the fish in my keep net . good work and i hope to see more of your videos .
04:20 it attacked the pike on the same spot as it had a scar.
Serial pike killer
That place looks like paradise look at all the pike and perch
Great video,but i think those pike are not very hungry.
I'm just start to pike fish n have only caught one up to now this is very interesting n I will be try a pike lure to see if it bring me more bits, great experiment.

You make Awesome movies ... Respect 👍🏻
They start to clue onto your game.
well done for retrieving the cut off lure.
Great video!
Living here in Michigan. I never have to fish for pike because no matter whatever I fish for, the pike are out there.
I have a trout lure that I always bring with me, if all else fails I get him out and results 8/10 times, never a big one but usually 5/10 pounds and saves going home on a blank. Great videos 👍👍👍
david hunt I use bronze or silver mepp spinners 6/10 catching them there quite decent
Awesome video
Pike definitely have cannibalistic behaviours.
I fish the pristine hinterland of Northern Ontario, Canada. A place of towering boreal giants and untouched, pure waters harboring massive denizens of the freshwater deeps.
I have caught more than my share of both smaller to larger pike up to 112 cm with cannibalized pike in the stomachs.
I was always amazed at the gastral capacity of pike, that is, with another pike inside at about 3/4 of its hosts length.
These fish are lightning-fast super-predators and if they were to be the size of a a great white, there would be NO great whites in existence...that's if they somehow shared the same water.
Also, speaking from experience, always use pliers to remove hooks. I have the battle scars to prove my point.
Ian Lloy Interesting use of the word (dinner?) host.
great videography! Would like to see more different Westin lures tested. THANKS!
what an incredible follow.... that fish watched the yellow paper clip for a long time.
agree .pretty cool video,wish all of them were as good as this one thanks.
The only thing I've noticed is that big pike prefer big lures. I've fished with live pike, perch and roach as bait and all attract strikes but size seem to be a big factor. I've seen a 2 kg pike attack a hooked 1 kg pike and I'm not sure if it's because of eliminating competition or just attacking something that behave in a distressed manner.
i caught a 3kg pike the other day with a 5gram lure. they eat anything :P
Доброго времени.
