I don't know about C. cincta... the ones in the pics look like pretty much any juvenile of the spangled pikes(lucius, saxatilis, lepidota, proteus, so on and so fourth...)

I totally agree, doesn`t look like a cincta to me either.

I think I have a lucius and this pike seems to have a shorter snout and head than my lucius. It looks similar but the head makes me agree with a cincta or another species.

I'm just saying its a saxatilis group (Just my opinion) and that narrows it down to like 50 species. They are harder than heck to ID at that size... they all look the same.

I will try for a better picture in the morning. I brought them in as Anushau pikes

OK, maybe a definite ID?

Those pictures make me wanna lean towards lucius as well...haha. The facial structure and colors are closest to them...GREAT pikes!! Highly underrated...

Any Saxatilis is a friend of mine. Easiest and prettiest (IMO) group of pikes there are.

Easier? Probably. Prettier? Highly debatable!!

Does everyone agree?
