Spring Pike Fishing 2026
May 09, 2026
Spring pike on a fly rod is nothing but pure excitement! Pike come out of winter and spawning in a feeding mood, but they’re still in the shallows, so it’s the perfect opportunity to wade in and cast right to them. And you’ll often see them chase and smash your fly, sometimes jumping out of the water right in front of you as you go to take your next cast! If you enjoy big fish, visual eats, and flashy flies - then spring pike fishing is hard to beat!
