Heading up for our spring fishing trip. any advice out there? we will be staying in chippawa bay and will be hitting all the usual spots.

Well my long awaited week long pike fishing trip has come and gone. Let me tell you it was our best trip ever!! We fished for five days and I averaged about 25 pike a day and good or bad(since we were not fishing for them), 50 bass a day. I'm not sure if the bass population has exploded or we just hit it at the right time but every where we usually catch pike there were large numbers of bass. I almost felt bad but we were having too much fun. I will post pictures later this week but we caught some very nice pike. Friday afternnoon before memorial day in one spot I caught 16 in less than an hour and four of them were 8lbers. The biggest I boated was a 9lber but can't tell you how many in the 6-8lb range. I hope this is the beginning of a come back for the pike on the st. lawrence!!!

Heading up to the St. lawrence next week for our annual fishing trip, just wondered if anyone had any updates on how the fishing has been. I have already made my trip to Gander Mountain to by a few new weapons to the tool box!

Looking for advice on catching pike this spring on the St. Lawrence in the Ogdensburg area up through the islands.

I fish the St. lawrence River from Ogdensburg up through the Islands the week around Memorial Day every year. Looking for advice and suggestions on new ways and areas to catch Pike. We currently routinely spend days spinning until our arms fall off in weedy bays.
