- Ways to Catch Pike!
- One of our most common game fish, the Northern Pike is taken best by casting. He'll hit your lure with a powerful dash, then make a "run" for the weeds.

- Cold Water Pike
- Esox luscious. The Northern pike. The water wolf. Whatever the name, the attitude is the same; MEAN! The cold and ice only seem to add to the pike's cranky personality; it dares you to try and yank it through a hole and pull it out of its turf. In the winter, pike are active and not as finicky as other species of fish; they will readily hit your bait and will fight like a bear when hooked.
- Spoon Fed Pike
- It seems that more and more emphasis is being put on the use of body baits. Tackle companies are spending more money developing the perfect swimming action, the perfect wobble, or rattle, or any number of other characteristics. The spoon seems to have fallen by the wayside in favour of Husky Jerks, Bombers, Torpedoes, and other similiar lures.
- Spring Pike Fishing
- Some of the best pike fishin'is early, just as the pike season opens. At this time of the year you will find pike feeding on smaller fish that are still holding in spawning areas such as rivers or river mouths. Search out the water that has warmed first, then look for darker coloured bottom flats or early weed growth.
- Top Lure Picks for Early Season Pike
- Fresh from the spawn, pike will be found in specific locations and can be caught with a variety of lures. At this time of year, the fishing can be fast and furious, and Mr. Pike is more than willing to entertain you with a game of tug-of-war. Jump-start your fishing season by tangling with the mighty "water wolf", and be prepared for some of the best fishing you can imagine.
- When the Predators Return…
- Boats crisscrossed it all summer long; personal watercraft here, tuber there. Weeds uprooted and shredded, fouling the surface like bees in a beverage. These disorderly but auspicious shoreline flats are playgrounds for people, and consequently vacated by gamefish.
