Northern Pike
Central Wisconsin offers some surprisingly good Northern Pike fishing, and the Plainfield area is no exception. Focus your efforts on the backwaters and sloughs connected to the Wisconsin River during the spring spawning season for your best chance at a trophy. As the water warms, pike tend to move into deeper weed beds and can be targeted with weedless spoons, spinnerbaits, and large crankbaits. Late fall can also be productive as pike aggressively feed before winter. A local tip: The stretch of the Wisconsin River near Biron offers good access points and boat launches. Be aware of fluctuating water levels due to the dams, and always check river conditions before heading out. The pike in this region are known for their aggressive strikes, so be prepared for a fight!
