dutch treat with a 50lb 7oz pike

A new potential Dutch record pike has been boated at a colossal 50lb 7oz (23kg).

The fish fell to the rod of Westin Fishing-backed predator enthusiast Siegfried Schön, who was trolling a lure on a large undisclosed water in the Netherlands when he received a powerful take. 

After a fight of around five minutes, the pike was netted and measured at an incredible 138cm long.
