Northern Pike
Believe it or not, targeting Northern Pike near Hermiston, Oregon, is a viable option. The Umatilla National Wildlife Refuge, with its interconnected sloughs and backwaters off the Columbia River, provides surprisingly good habitat for these toothy predators. Spring and early summer are the best times to fish for pike, as they become more active after spawning. Focus on areas with dense vegetation, such as lily pads and weed beds, as pike are ambush predators. A local tip: use large lures, such as swimbaits or spinnerbaits, and don't be afraid to experiment with different colors and retrieves. Also, be sure to use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs. While the pike in this area might not reach trophy sizes, they offer an exciting alternative to the more common bass and panfish.
