Northern Pike
Looking to tangle with some Northern Pike? Genoa, Wisconsin, nestled along the Mississippi River, offers fantastic opportunities. The backwaters, sloughs, and connected lakes off the main channel are prime pike habitat. Spring, just after ice-out, is arguably the best time, as pike move into these shallow, warmer areas to spawn. Fall is also productive as they aggressively feed before winter. Try targeting areas with submerged vegetation or near current breaks. A local tip: the Genoa Dam tailwaters can hold some real monsters, but be prepared for heavy current. When navigating the backwaters, a shallow-draft boat or kayak is highly recommended. Pike in this area are known for their aggressive strikes, so use wire leaders to prevent bite-offs. Also, be aware of changing river levels, as this can significantly impact fish location and accessibility.
