Pike (creature)

A pike, or pickerel, is species of fish which can grow to be incredibly large. Common folk may often classify marauding pikes as monsters.
The pike is an ambush predator; if its attack succeed, the target receive heavy wounds. When the pike itself is heavily wounded it tends to retreat, unlike the barracuda.
More gigantic breed of pike is called king pickerel. While considered extinct, few specimen can be found in the Pontar Delta.
