Record-Breaking Pike Caught in OHIO
A gigantic Ohio pike measuring 54 inches long and weighing 30 pounds was caught by angler Bill Heckel on the Auglaize River. The fish is a new state record, breaking the previous record of 48 inches long and 27 pounds.
Heckel said he was using a green Jitterbug lure when he hooked the massive pike. "I fought it for about 20 minutes," he recalled. "It's a good thing I had my drag set good, because it would have snapped my line if it hadn't."
The previous Ohio state record pike was caught in 2010 by angler Matt Francis on the Muskingum River. That fish measured 48 inches long and weighed 27 pounds.
The Auglaize River is a tributary of the Maumee River, which flows into Lake Erie. Pike are common in many of Ohio's rivers and lakes, and they can be difficult to catch because they often lie quietly near the bottom until prey comes near. They are also known for their fighting spirit once hooked.
Anglers hoping to catch an Ohio pike should use large lures such as spinnerbaits, jerkbaits or crankbaits that mimic small fish. Pike can be caught from shore or from a boat, and they are often most active early in the morning or late in the evening.
