That is a great pike, but not twenty pounds.
Most people are poor judges of weight, especially when the fish is bigger than what they usually catch. I have to roll my eyes when people tell me bout the "ten-pound bass" they caught. Any sizeable bass is a "five or six pounder".
For catch-and-release, I find the online length-weight estimators to be invaluable.

Interesting website. I didn't know there wasa NJ fishing reports website.
I'm not in the market for a stick-in anchor for my kayak, but I had to spend a few minutes considering this ad for a "swivel stick anchor"
I have a swivel stick for her.
