Northern Pike
For a truly unique fishing experience near Columbia City, consider targeting Northern Pike in the backwaters and sloughs connected to the Columbia River. These aggressive predators are not native to the area but have established a presence and offer exciting fishing. Look for pike in areas with dense vegetation, such as weed beds and lily pads. Spring and early summer, during and after the spawn, are excellent times to target them. Large swimbaits, spinnerbaits, and crankbaits are effective lures. Pike have sharp teeth, so use a wire leader to prevent them from biting through your line. Be prepared for explosive strikes and hard fights. A popular spot is the marshy areas around Scappoose Bay. Pike fishing in Oregon is still a relatively new and evolving fishery, so be sure to familiarize yourself with the regulations and any specific guidelines for handling and reporting these fish.
