There are some detailed scientific ways to determine the age of aNorthernPike but the easiest and quickest way to do so for the common angler is to consult an Length to Weight to Age chart for the part of the country you are fishing in for Norther Pike. Pike will grow faster in some areas compared to othersbecauseof environment factors like water temperature, forage, and risk of predation.

You can get a rough determination of the age of a Northern Pike through it's length. This information can vary depending on your location because Northern Pike will tend to grow quicker in warmer areas.

In Ontario, Canada, a 39 inch Northern Pike would be approximately 19 years of age.
