Northern Pike
Pursuing northern pike near Port Edwards means exploring the sloughs and backwaters connected to the Wisconsin River. This isn't a saltwater environment; instead, focus on finding weedy areas and submerged structure where pike ambush their prey. Spring and fall are prime times, as pike become more active in cooler water temperatures. Look for areas with slow-moving water and plenty of cover, such as lily pads, fallen trees, and submerged vegetation. Large spinnerbaits, spoons, and crankbaits are effective lure choices. A local tip is to use a wire leader to prevent pike from biting through your line. Be prepared for aggressive strikes and powerful fights. Several boat launches along the river provide access to these pike-rich areas, but be mindful of shallow water and submerged hazards.
