Northern Pike
Targeting Northern Pike near Akron, Indiana, requires exploring the area's lakes, reservoirs, and larger river systems. While pike aren't as prevalent as other species, persistent anglers can find them in weedy areas and near structure. Spring, just after ice-out, and fall, as water temperatures cool, are prime times to target these predators. Focus on areas with submerged vegetation, creek mouths, and drop-offs. Tippecanoe River, flowing southwest of Akron, holds some pike. A local tip: Use large spinnerbaits, crankbaits, or swimbaits retrieved slowly near weed edges. Also, consider using a wire leader to prevent bite-offs, as pike have sharp teeth. Pike in this region tend to be opportunistic feeders, so don't be afraid to experiment with different lure presentations to find what triggers a strike.
