It’s that time of year folks. Giant spring gator’s, A.K.A northern pike. These toothy critters are out looking for shallow, soft-bottomed back bays that lose ice and warm up the quickest. Back bays that have a large flat, around three feet of water, maybe with a creek feeding into it, with cane or weeds will be a prime area to start. It’s also where a lot of the bait migrate to, and pike will follow and eventually spawn. You can try laying smelts on the bottom or my preferred method is casting and retrieving a glide bait or plastic slowly. These fish are not as active considering how cold the water is and won’t chase down baits like they do in the warmer summer months. Good luck and please promote “CPR” Catch Photo Release😎 👊     Fish Cowboyz Out!
