Alaska Northern Pike Fishing - Yentna River Tributaries |
| |
Northern Pike are abundant in two nearby lakes in the Lake Creek area.
Large numbers of fish 2-4 lbs with some exceeding 10 lbs. can be taken by various techniques
in these secluded glass-water lakes. Pike are voracious feeders and provide hot action
on topwater lures and flies throughout the summer. Low light periods of the day and early
and late season provide the best times to chase pike.
