Northern Pike
Targeting northern pike in Grant, Minnesota, means exploring the weedy bays and shallow areas of its numerous smaller lakes. What sets Grant apart is the presence of these smaller, interconnected bodies of water, which provide ideal spawning and ambush habitat for pike. Spring, right after ice-out, is a fantastic time to target them as they move into the shallows to feed. Fall is also a great option as they bulk up before winter. Spinnerbaits, spoons, and large crankbaits are all effective lures. A steel leader is a must, as pike have sharp teeth. Many lakes lack developed public access, so consider using a kayak or canoe to reach prime fishing spots. Focus on areas near creek inlets or outlets, as these often hold concentrations of baitfish and, consequently, pike. Remember to practice catch and release to help maintain the pike population in these smaller lakes.
