Pike Fishing

Pike Fishing is great fun when you understand a few things about how a Northern Pike thinks.

Northern Pike don’t think about a lot, and then don’t think about it for long – so once you understand the basics, you’ll always know how to catch northern pike, no matter what lake you are fishing.

Pike Fishing For Lunch

If you are planning to catch fish for a meal, then you’ll be aiming for the plentiful medium sized pike. This is ideal for family fishing because many of the smaller sized pike fit great in a frying pan!

Pike Fishing For Glory

Catching the Biggest Northern Pike in the lake requires a different strategy. These monster predetors feed on different sized fish – and require larger fishing lures to attract their attention.

While average size northern pike hide out to catch bait-fish, the biggest pike are hiding out waiting to ambush the average sized pike!

So, use bigger Northern Pike lures and fish a little further away from the edge of the weed-bed, and you’ll have a better chance of reeling in that monster – the next time you go Pike Fishing!
