Excerpt from Pike and Perch: With Notes on Record Pike and a Chapter on the Black Bass, Murray Cod and Other Sporting Members of the Perch Family
The tail is large and rather forked the pectoral and ventral fins are small; there are mucous orifices in pairs on the head; also some in single rows in the lower jaw-bones; the cheeks and upper parts of gill-covers have scales on them. Pike are silvery white on the belly, but their other colourings vary according to location and season of the year. In spring and summer, while aquatic vegetation is green, they are mottled with white, yellow, and green; in autumn and winter, olive brown mottled with green, thus assimilating to the surrounding conditions of decaying weeds and sedges - the head and back are dark olive brown tail, dorsal, and anal fin dark brown, mixed with red and dark green on the fin-rays; the pectoral and ventral fins are pale brown, and the gills a vivid red.
