Just imaging quietly drifting into a weedy bay on a calm sunny afternoon. With a closer look, you see the weeds moving apart but can not see any fish. Then a school of minnows comes flying out of the water. You silently send your fly onto a clear patch between the weeds and start to retrieve it when a giant splash breaks the silence and all you can hear is your fly-reel screaming off line.
That is why fly-fishing for Northern Pike gets more and more popular every day. It's a very effective way to get bait into thick weedy spots and its much more challenging to bring a fish in compared to a spinning rod and reel.
Northern Pike in Lower Foster Lake can exceed 47 inches, which is over 40 pounds. Have you ever caught a 40-pound fish on a fly-rod before? Here's your chance.
