Northern Pike

Various

Targeting Northern Pike near Larkspur, Colorado, requires a bit of exploration and potentially some travel, as they aren't as prevalent as other species in the immediate area. While not abundant, pike can be found in some of the larger reservoirs within a reasonable driving distance. Look for bodies of water with established weed beds and plenty of forage fish. Spring (after ice-out) and fall (as water cools) are the best times to target pike. Focus on areas near creek inlets or submerged structure where they might ambush prey. A practical tip: use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs, and be prepared to cover a lot of water to find active fish. Large swimbaits, spoons, and crankbaits are all effective lure choices. Because pike populations can be localized, check with local bait shops or online fishing forums for recent reports and tips on specific reservoirs in the region. Pike fishing here requires patience and persistence, but the reward of landing one of these apex predators can be well worth the effort.
