Northern Pike
For Northern Pike enthusiasts, Lyons Falls, New York, provides access to some under-appreciated fisheries. The Black River, which flows through the area, offers good pike habitat, especially in the slower, weedy sections. Spring, just after ice-out, and fall are the prime times to target these predators. Look for pike near weed beds, fallen timber, and other structure where they ambush prey. Large spinnerbaits, spoons, and crankbaits are all effective lures. Live bait, such as shiners or suckers, can also be productive. A good starting point is the area around the Lyons Falls dam, where pike often congregate. Be aware that the Black River can have strong currents, so use appropriate tackle. The local pike population tends to be of a good average size, with the chance of hooking into a real trophy.
