Northern Pike
Targeting Northern Pike near Brownsville, Wisconsin, means exploring the backwaters and sloughs connected to the Rock River. These weedy areas provide excellent habitat for pike to ambush prey. Spring, right after ice-out, and fall are the most productive times. Pike are aggressive feeders, so larger lures are often the key. Spoons, spinnerbaits, and crankbaits are all good choices. Don't be afraid to throw in some larger swimbaits as well. A steel leader is a must, as pike have sharp teeth. A good access point is the Horicon Marsh Wildlife Area, though it's a bit of a drive from Brownsville itself. The pike in this area can reach impressive sizes, so be prepared for a battle. Remember to practice catch and release to help maintain the population. Be prepared for heavy vegetation, so weedless lures can be key.
