Northern Pike
If you're looking to tangle with some Northern Pike near Flower Hill, New York, you'll primarily be focusing on the freshwater lakes and reservoirs further inland on Long Island. While not as abundant as in some northern states, decent-sized pike can be found. The best time to target them is during the early spring, right after ice-out (if we have a cold winter), or in the fall as water temperatures cool. These periods see the pike become more active and aggressive as they feed up for spawning or winter. Access to prime pike habitat might require a bit of a drive, but the reward can be worth it. Check out the DEC's (Department of Environmental Conservation) website for public access points and boat launch information for lakes like Lake Ronkonkoma or the Peconic River. A local tip: Pike in these waters tend to be ambush predators, so focus your efforts around weed beds, submerged timber, and drop-offs. Using large swimbaits, crankbaits, or even dead bait under a bobber can be effective. Be sure to use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs!
