Northern Pike
If you're after northern pike near Lewisville, Minnesota, focus your attention on the area's smaller lakes and sloughs. These often-overlooked waters can hold surprisingly large pike, particularly during the spring spawn and fall feeding frenzies. Look for shallow, weedy areas with plenty of cover. Spring (April-May) is excellent for targeting pike as they move into these areas to spawn. Fall (September-October) is another prime time as they bulk up for winter. A local tip: Use large spinnerbaits, spoons, or jerkbaits to attract their attention. Dead bait rigs can also be very effective, especially when fishing near the bottom. Be sure to use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs. Many of these smaller lakes lack developed boat ramps, so a small boat or kayak is often your best bet. The pike in this region tend to be aggressive, and you might even encounter some trophy-sized fish.
