A pike, or pickerel, is species of fish which can grow to be incredibly large. Common folk may often classify marauding pikes as monsters.[1]
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.[2]
More gigantic breed of pike is called king pickerel. While considered extinct, few specimen can be found in the Pontar Delta.[3]

- In The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, during the secondary quest A Dangerous Game, Zoltan and Caesar Bilzen start discussing the flavor of pike, with them having differing opinions on it. Geralt can give his opinion on it or not.
