Northern Pike
Pike aren't a common target near Sandy, Oregon, but the adventurous angler can find them in the slower-moving sections of the Clackamas River or potentially in some of the larger private ponds with landowner permission. Targeting these ambush predators requires a different approach than the salmon and steelhead fishing the area is known for. Look for areas with weedy cover, back eddies, and submerged logs. Spring and fall are typically the best times to target pike, as they are more active in cooler water. Large spinnerbaits, swimbaits, or even dead bait fished under a bobber can be effective. Be sure to use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs. Access to the Clackamas River is generally good, but be prepared for some hiking to reach the more secluded areas. Pike fishing here is definitely a niche pursuit, so don't expect huge numbers, but a successful catch can be very rewarding.
