Northern Pike
Looking for some northern pike action near Barker, New York? Focus your efforts on the slower-moving sections of Eighteenmile Creek and the backwaters connected to Lake Ontario. Spring, just after ice-out, is a particularly good time to target these predators as they move into shallow, weedy areas to spawn. Early fall can also be productive as water temperatures cool and pike become more active. Large spinnerbaits, spoons, and crankbaits are all effective lures. For bank access, explore the areas around Krull Park. From a boat, be mindful of shallow areas and submerged timber. The pike in this region can reach impressive sizes, so be prepared with heavy tackle and a wire leader. Remember to practice catch and release to help maintain this exciting fishery.
