Warm weather Pike

[Guest]

When the temp get up to 90+ and surface temp in hot were to the pike normally hide? Do they go deep like 7'-15', then what should i use to catch them that deep? I fish a fairly weedy lake and will I find them on the weed line or where else?

Hog hunter,

Mid to late summer pike are usually found on the deep weed edges, suspended over deep water, or on the rock bars. If your lake is shallow and weedy look to the deep weed edge. Try to find points and inside turns in the weed bed. These areas will generally prove the most productive.

The best presentations are large sucker minnows on a quick strike rig, jerk baits, or large crank baits.

Hope this helps you out and good luck!
