Northern Pike
Pike fishing near New Point, Indiana, presents a unique challenge due to the nature of the local waterways. The backwaters and slower-moving sections of the Big Blue River and Flatrock River can hold some surprises. Early spring, just after ice-out, and late fall, as the water cools, are prime times to target these ambush predators. Large spinnerbaits, spoons, and crankbaits are effective for covering water and triggering strikes. A local tactic is to focus on areas with weed edges or submerged timber, as pike often lie in wait for unsuspecting prey. Be sure to use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs. Keep an eye on water levels and clarity, as pike prefer relatively clear water with plenty of cover. Be prepared to move frequently to locate active fish.
