Default Pike on the fly.

With limited time these days it's seems like my trips to the southern part of the province chasing trout have dwindled down to a couple trips a year. To fill the void I often float tube around Edmonton areas pot hole lakes for stocked rainbows. Just this past year I started floating some shallow bays, tossing big streamers for pike. I haven't bothered to put the time in to chase anything big as I'm perfectly content with the action the small pike offer this time of year. The typical pencil pike that you drag in on its side with hard tackle are a blast on a fly rod. Anybody else floattube/kayak for northerns in the Edmonton area?

I've also gotten into pike near edmonton this year. I've been using my drift boat primarily (when there isnt wind, haha). Walleye are pretty fun on fly gear too.

Fun times for sure! PM me if you'd like to join forces for a trip!

I actually saw a really informative DVD on fishing for pike on the fly I'll have to get the name of it because it was a good one I'd like to watch it again.

I took a look on the ole interweb and couldn't really point out the cover of any specific DVD. I got it from the guys down at fishtales fly shop in their video rental department if you ask there I'm sure they would be able to tell you what it is.
