Most sources say this is a made up story, the guy holding the fish is a picture of a pike from somewhere in Europe, and the one of the big pike mauling the smaller one is unrelated from what I have found online. Cool story none the less, but almost nothing about it is factual...
The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable,
a perpetual series of occasions for hope.

i had seen the pic of the guy and fish before but never the big and little pike ...figure there had to be some truth in it  :-\
the cool part to me is the big and small pike pic , which obviously happened to someone at some time if they have the pic ...

Saw it last year too. Heard the pic of the large pike eating the small one was taken up in Canada.
