Northern Pike
While Northern Pike aren't native to Oregon, they have been introduced into some waters, and La Pine offers a chance to target them in a unique setting. Crane Prairie Reservoir, a short drive from La Pine, is the primary location. This shallow, weedy reservoir provides ideal habitat for pike. Spring, after the ice melts, and fall, before freeze-up, are the best times to target them. Pike are ambush predators, so focus on areas with thick vegetation, such as weed beds and lily pads. Large swimbaits, spinnerbaits, and topwater lures can be effective. Be sure to use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs. Crane Prairie can be challenging due to its shallow water and abundant weeds, but the potential for catching a large pike makes it worthwhile. A local tip: try fishing near the channels that connect different sections of the reservoir. Access is available via several boat ramps around the lake. The pike population in Crane Prairie is relatively small, but the fish can grow to impressive sizes.
