Northern Pike
Pike fishing around Long Beach, Indiana, requires a bit of exploration beyond the immediate shoreline. While not abundant, Northern Pike can be found in some of the larger inland lakes connected to the Lake Michigan watershed. Look for weedy bays and shallow, vegetated areas, especially during the spring and early summer months after the spawn. Pike are ambush predators, so focus on areas with plenty of cover. Large spinnerbaits, spoons, and crankbaits are effective lures. A practical tip: try fishing the edges of weed beds with a large swimbait. Also, be prepared for some exciting strikes, as pike are known for their aggressive takes. While trophy-sized pike are rare, you can still find some decent fish in the area's lakes.
