Northern Pike
If you're chasing Northern Pike near Charleston, Utah, your best bet is heading to the nearby Jordanelle Reservoir. This reservoir offers a unique, high-altitude pike fishing experience. While not known as a trophy pike destination, Jordanelle holds a healthy population of these ambush predators, with fish in the 5-10 pound range being fairly common, and the occasional larger specimen. Spring, just after ice-off, and fall are prime times. As the water warms in summer, pike tend to move deeper, making them harder to target from shore. A key tactic is to focus on areas with submerged vegetation or structure. Points and coves are also good spots to try. Consider using large swimbaits, crankbaits, or even dead bait rigs. Access to the reservoir is readily available through several boat ramps around the perimeter. Be mindful of the wind; Jordanelle can get quite choppy, especially in the afternoon. Also, check the current fishing regulations for size and bag limits before heading out.
