Northern Pike Length to Weight Conversions
The obvious way to determine the weight of your pike is to weigh it, using a weighing sling and scale.
If you do not have a scale but know the length and girth of your pike you can calulate it's
approximate weight based on a couple different widely accepted formulas:
Formula 1: length (in.) x girth (in.) x girth (in.) / 800 = weight (lbs.)
Formula 2 (The Crawford Method): [length (in.) x girth (in.)/25] - 25 = weight (lbs.)
We have provided printable tables based on Formula 1:
The following table shows weights using Formula 2:
