Northern Pike
Although not widely known as a pike hotspot, Montour Falls, NY, does offer some limited opportunities to target Northern Pike. Seneca Lake, a short drive from Montour Falls, is your best bet for finding these toothy predators. Pike tend to lurk in weedy areas and near drop-offs. Spring and early summer are usually the most productive times to fish for them, as they move into shallower water to spawn. Use larger lures like spoons, spinners, or swimbaits to entice a strike. A local tip: try fishing the northern end of Seneca Lake, where there tends to be more vegetation. The pike population in Seneca Lake is relatively healthy, with some fish reaching decent sizes. Be sure to use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs, and handle these fish with care due to their sharp teeth.
