It's very spotty in Ohio. A lot of pike are caught as bicatch fishing for the
newly invigorated bass fishery of Lake Erie. The Raisin and Huron up in
Michigan are your first choices going northward, but really... I think you're
better off going on north of Ann Arbor. The range gets pretty solid up there,
and it's not so much hit or miss. I think they're fairly common in the
Kalamazoo, Grand and other western streams. I know folks who've cussed them
up and down on the Au Sable for stealing their prized trout. But yeah... It's
a north country adventure any which way. If you want to be sure, you're going
to have to go to Michigan.

Todd,

Being from the Toledo area ya gotta be familiar with some northern pike
streams. I am not talking Sandusky River or Maumee River size....how about
the smaller tribs...there has to be some that are chalked full of 25" to 30".
I am on a quest to stalk a few with the long rod and I know I don't have to go
to Canada to do it....

thanks

Mike
