Northern Pike

Various

Northern pike offer an exciting angling opportunity in the waters surrounding Kingsbury, Indiana. These aggressive predators can be found in many of the area's lakes and slow-moving rivers connected to the Kankakee River system. Spring is an excellent time to target pike as they move into shallow, weedy bays to spawn. Large spinnerbaits, spoons, and crankbaits are effective for covering water and triggering strikes. Fall is another productive period as pike feed heavily to prepare for winter. Try fishing deeper weed lines or drop-offs with large swimbaits or jerkbaits. A useful tip: The Kankakee River State Park provides access to the river, offering opportunities to fish from the bank or launch a small boat. Pike in this region can reach impressive sizes, with some exceeding 30 inches. Be sure to use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs.
