Northern Pike
Fair Haven, with its access to Little Sodus Bay and Lake Ontario, is a hidden gem for Northern Pike fishing in New York. These toothy predators are ambush hunters, and Little Sodus Bay offers plenty of prime habitat, including weedy areas, docks, and submerged timber. Spring and early summer, particularly after the ice melts, are excellent times to target pike as they move into the shallows to spawn and feed aggressively. Fall is another great period as they bulk up for the winter months. Local anglers often have success trolling large spoons or crankbaits along weed lines or casting jerkbaits and swimbaits in shallower bays. The DEC boat launch on the east side of Little Sodus Bay is a popular access point. Be prepared for some big fish; pike in the 10-15 pound range are common, and larger specimens are always a possibility. Bring wire leaders, as their sharp teeth can easily cut through monofilament or fluorocarbon.
