Northern Pike
If you're targeting Northern Pike near Hobart, Indiana, focus your efforts on the shallow, weedy waters of Deep River and Lake George. These areas provide ideal ambush points for pike, especially during the spring spawning season and again in the fall as water temperatures cool. Early morning and late afternoon are typically the most productive times. For Deep River, access can be a bit tricky, but the various parks along its banks offer opportunities for shore fishing. Be sure to check local regulations regarding boat access and size limits. A key to success here is using large, flashy lures or live bait like sucker minnows. The pike in these waters tend to be opportunistic feeders, so don't be afraid to experiment with different presentations. Also, be prepared for some submerged vegetation – weedless lures or rigs are a must to avoid constant snags.
