Northern Pike
While Northern Pike aren't native to the immediate Edmonds area, a trip a bit further inland will open up some fishing options. Head east towards the Snoqualmie River watershed, where some lakes and sloughs hold populations of pike, though they may be less common than other species. Spring and early summer, after the spawn, are generally the best times to target pike, as they are actively feeding. Look for weedy areas, submerged timber, and shallow bays. Anglers targeting pike often use large swimbaits, spinnerbaits, or jerkbaits. A steel leader is essential to prevent bite-offs. A practical tip: access can be challenging in some areas, so research boat launches and access points beforehand. Pike in Washington aren't particularly large compared to those in other parts of the country, but catching one is still a thrilling experience. Always check the WDFW regulations for any specific rules or restrictions regarding pike fishing in the area you plan to fish.
