Where the Pike Strikes!

Have you seen a pike, Adventurers?

As you travel along this smooth-surfaced path between the large fishing lodge and the duck canal, look closely and you might see one - Or at least, you will see a wicker representation of it! Fear not the pike, Adventurers - Unless you're a small fish, in which case BE VERY AFRAID! Ah, but now I'm being silly - I'll stop carping on!

Continue along the path until you reach the junction at the end of the fishing lodge. Here you must choose - Over the rickety bridge to your left or continue up along the smooth-surfaced path?
