Northern Pike
While not as commonly associated with Washougal as other species, Northern Pike can be found in some of the backwater sloughs and lakes connected to the Columbia River near town. These areas, often overlooked by anglers focusing on salmon or trout, can hold surprisingly large pike. Lacamas Lake, with its weedy edges and submerged timber, is a potential hotspot. Spring, as the water warms, is the prime time to target pike as they move into shallow areas to spawn. Use large swimbaits, spinnerbaits, or even dead bait under a bobber to entice strikes. Be sure to use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs, as pike have razor-sharp teeth. Access can be gained via boat launches on Lacamas Lake, or by walking along the shoreline in some areas. Pike fishing in this area is a bit of a hidden gem, so be prepared to explore and experiment to find where the fish are holding.
