Beginners guide to Pike fishing gear on the fly!

Chris Niccolls from Bow River Troutfitters shows you the tackle you need to rig up for Pike fishing season. Pike are incredibly fun to fish in the springtime, and a great way to spend time on the water before the main rivers start fishing well again. You can get all the gear you need at bowrivertroutfitters.com

I was in northern Alberta last year targeting pike but not seeing a lot of action so I started targeting the walleye. I did really well on them. They were fun on a fly too!

Great video! Thanks!

Northern pike is an awesome fish

I completely agree, it’s crazy that people don’t appreciate them as a gamefish. I live on the Indian River Lagoon and fish for 5+ days a week. That being said, I still get excited to head back to northern MN every summer and target the mighty hauki 😃

I'm sure they are fun to fight, maybe not so fun to cast too.

So many people are put off pike where im from because of the teeth... I mean to each their own but it sounds like some weird concept of fish racism 🤣

[@BowRiverTroutfittersCalgary]

I like to fish for them specifically because they are so toothy and aggressive. As long as you have nice long pliers its all good.

I catch pike on streamers at Clear Lake down by Stavely.
