Northern Pike
Northern pike in the Attleboro, MA area? Absolutely! While not as common as other species, some of the larger ponds and lakes around Attleboro harbor a healthy population of these toothy predators. You'll want to concentrate your efforts on bodies of water like Lake Massapoag and nearby larger water bodies. These lakes have the size and structure (weeds, submerged timber) that pike prefer. Spring is prime time, just after ice-out, when pike are actively feeding in the shallows. Fall is also a great time as they fatten up for winter. Large spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and swimbaits are all effective lures. Don't be afraid to use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs. A local tip: Launch at the Lake Massapoag boat ramp and target the weedy areas along the shoreline. Pike here tend to be ambush predators, so focus on areas where they can hide and wait for prey. The pike population isn't huge, so be prepared to put in some time, but the reward of landing a trophy pike is worth the effort.
