People began to fish at the dawn of human civilization. The oldest fishing hook found by archaeologists is about forty-two thousand years old. The pike is an ancient predator. It is not for nothing that all fishermen consider pike an enviable prey. These fish are distinguished not only by their excellent reaction, but also by their intelligence - they learn well from their own experience. These fish are found only on two continents - in Eurasia and North America. There are seven species of pike in the world. And since they live a long time, it is really not easy to catch an old and smart pike. Pikes grow throughout life, and can reach a length of 2 meters. In addition to fish, they willingly include in their menu frogs, tadpoles, small lizards and rodents who dared to swim across the reservoir. During the first year of life, this fish grows to 60-70 cm in length, after which the growth rate slows down, and it begins to add 2-3 centimeters annually. Pike teeth are replaced with new ones as they are lost or worn out throughout life. During one spawning, a female pike, depending on the species, can lay up to 250 thousand eggs. The weight of an old pike can reach 33-35 kg, but this is a rarity - they rarely live to such a solid size. They only live in cold water. The pike prefers to hunt from an ambush. Usually it freezes motionless in thickets of vegetation in shallow water, from where it rushes with a sudden jerk to prey. The pike appears in folk tales and legends of all countries in which it is found.
