I caught this 35″ mystery fish in the Boundary Waters in Minnesota. It weighed close to 13 pounds. We caught a lot of pike of similar size in the lake, but this fish was essentially silver in color, with no obvious pike pattern. When it was fighting in the water, and even slightly noticeable in the picture, you can see a hint of (faint) vertical bars, but the fins and fish appeared to be solid silver. I dont recall the number of lower jawline markings. Any thoughts?_–Brian Dittman, Granite City, Illinois Brian, Fishing Editor John Merwin thinks the fish is a silver pike, an uncommon (though not especially rare) color variation of the northern pike. Do a google search for details on the fish. Good fishing. –the Eds. Â Field & Stream Online Editors
