Northern Pike
If you're after northern pike, Richville, NY, offers a solid base for exploring the pike-rich waters of St. Lawrence County. Black Lake, in particular, is renowned for its healthy population of northerns. These fish thrive in the weedy bays and shallow areas of the lake. Spring is an excellent time to target pike, as they move into the shallows to spawn. Fall is also productive as they actively feed before winter. For a local tip, try fishing the weed edges with large spinnerbaits or spoons. Pike in Black Lake are known to be ambush predators, so focus on areas where they can hide and wait for prey. Be sure to use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs, as pike have sharp teeth. Public boat launches provide easy access to Black Lake, but be prepared for potential weeds and shallow water in some areas.
