Canada Northern Pike Fishing

Esox Lucius - Northern pike - are a top predator in lakes throughout Sunset Country. These fish are very common and average between 5 and 10 pounds in most lakes. There are of course many lakes with much larger fish and a 30 pound Northern is not out of reach. Also known as "Gators" to locals, the toothy fish love anything you throw at them - spoons, crankbaits, giant mepps all work well. Adjust your fishing tactics based on weather conditions and the time of year it is.
