Tips on Fly Fishing for Pike
Pike are toothy fish found in reservoirs, lakes, and various rivers around the country. They are very strong fighters and look ugly and ferocious. If you plan on fly fishing for pike, there are a few things you need to know. This article will give you a few tips to get you started.
Season
First and foremost, you will need to know the best time to catch these fish. You want to time your trip when they move from deeper water into the shallows. They do this in the early spring months, usually in May or June. They prefer feeding and spawning in these shallow waters, so it's easier for you to get to them then.
Location
You'll also want to know where the pike are likely to be in the water. Most of the time, you'll find them near reefs, logs, and weeds. They are also found in shallow bays or near stream flow. They can be hard to spot since they can blend in with their background. You may have success casting your fly into cloudy water.
Rod Strength
When fly fishing for pike, it's important that you use a strong enough fly rod. They are quite strong and will put up a big fight. Also, the ideal flies to use to lure these fish are pretty big. It's best to use at least an 8-weight fly rod. A 10-weight rod is better, especially when fishing in waters with larger pike.
Flies
These fish will strike virtually anything that comes near them as they are ambush eaters. This means that you can use a wide assortment of flies to lure them. If what you're using isn't working, then you can just try something else in your box. Different fish only like certain types of bait.
