Northern Pike
If you're looking to tangle with some Northern Pike in southern Wisconsin, Darien offers some under-the-radar opportunities. Focus your efforts on Lake Comus and Delavan Lake, both within easy driving distance of Darien. These lakes have good weed beds and structure that pike love to ambush prey from. Spring (after ice-out) and fall are prime times, as the pike are actively feeding in shallower water. For Lake Comus, try fishing the weed edges with large spinnerbaits or spoons. On Delavan Lake, target the areas around the Geneva Lake Canal inlet and outlet. A local tip: check the water clarity before you head out. Pike fishing is best when the water has some color to it. Local bait shops can provide up-to-date reports. Be prepared for some serious battles, as the pike in this area are known for their aggressive strikes.
