tekoutdoors.co Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 they are mainly elongated spots that run horizontal on the fish. I have a paint schedule for them for taxidermists if I could only find it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 There are some great pics on the web. If you Google images 'northern pike'. Once in Google images display, on the left side, you can select 'large', this filters out all the tiny pics. Here is a link to one pic that I thought was a good representation of the pattern, but there are plenty more where that came from.
