Northern Pike Fishing:
The English River is stuffed with Walleye. With so many feeder-fish and miles of water to patrol, Northern Pike virtually have an inexhaustible banquet, which allows these fresh water sharks to get very large.
Many of our guests spend the morning catching Walleyes. After a great shore lunch of fresh fish, they go Pike hunting. The English River has an enormous population of Pike and produces big trophies. You will find Northern Pike in every area of the river. In the early morning & early evening these big monster come into the shallow weed beds to feed.During the day they sit in the thick weeds ready to ambush their prey. Many of the Pike will stay just outside of the current and feed on Walleyes and other baitfish. No need to be an experienced fisherman, these fish are aggressive and are easily caught.
Common sizes of Northern Pike in our river range from good eating 3-pound hammer handles to 20-pound lunkers. There are numerous huge pike caught and released all summer in the 44 to 48 inch sizes, that are 22 to 27 pounds. Once in a while guests come across an extraordinary fish like the 54-inch / 34-pound monster caught a couple of years ago.
