pike has 7 distinct synonyms spread across 1 of its 5 senses. Each sense below keeps its own list, because a synonym belongs to a meaning and not to a word: swapping one sense's substitute into another sense's sentence is how a thesaurus makes writing worse. WordNet records no antonym for it — antonymy is a relation between word forms rather than concepts, so it is deliberately sparse.
Counts are distinct word forms across every sense. A synonym that appears under three senses is counted once here and shown three times below, under each sense it belongs to.
a broad highway designed for high-speed traffic
highly valued northern freshwater fish with lean flesh
a sharp point (as on the end of a spear)
any of several elongate long-snouted freshwater game and food fishes widely distributed in cooler parts of the northern hemisphere
