Extended: Giant pike caught in Quebec David "Larry" Gagnon-Lariviere caught a 32-pound pike while ice-fishing

A fisherman who lives in Rouyn-Noranda is very excited about the large fish he caught on the weekend.

David "Larry" Gagnon-Lariviere was ice fishing on Saturday when he landed the 32-lb pike.

Earlier in the day he had been talking to a community TV show about ice-fishing, and about half an hour later noticed he had a bite on his line.

Gagnon-Larivievere hauled in his catch, knowing while he was doing so that he had a substantial fish at the end of his line.

After he weighed and measured the pike, Gagnon-Lariviere put in back in the water.

He's not saying exactly where he was fishing, hoping the body of water will prove fruitful again in the future.
