Northern Pike
Targeting Northern Pike near Borden, Indiana, requires a bit of exploration and a willingness to fish slightly off the beaten path. While not as abundant as in more northern states, pike can be found in some of the larger reservoirs and slower-moving rivers in the region. Look for weedy areas, submerged timber, and creek mouths – classic pike ambush points. Spring (April-May) is an excellent time to target them as they move into shallower water to spawn. Fall (September-November) is also productive as they feed heavily before winter. A key tip: Utilize larger lures like swimbaits, spinnerbaits, and crankbaits to attract their attention. Steel leaders are a must due to their sharp teeth. Pike in this area tend to be on the smaller side, averaging 2-5 pounds, but the occasional larger fish is always a possibility. Focus your efforts in areas with healthy populations of baitfish and good water quality.
