What to Expect on the Water

From the moment you step aboard, Captain Jerry's got you covered. He'll set you up with quality rods, reels, and the right bait to target those hard-fighting Northern Pike. The rivers around here are teeming with fish, and you'll spend your day cruising to Jerry's secret spots. Don't worry if you're new to fishing - Jerry's patient teaching style will have you casting like a pro in no time. And for the experienced anglers, he's always got a few tricks up his sleeve to help you land that monster pike.

Hooking into Pike Action

When it comes to pike fishing, we keep things simple but effective. You might be trolling with crankbaits, casting spoons near weed beds, or working a jig through some timber. Jerry will show you how to read the water and spot likely pike hangouts. The bite can be fast and furious, so be ready! When a big Northern strikes, hold on tight - these fish are known for their aggressive fights and acrobatic jumps. It's an adrenaline rush that'll have the whole family hooked.

Top Catches This Season

Pike fishing has been on fire lately, with anglers pulling in some real beauties. Just last week, a 12-year-old landed her first 30-incher - you should've seen the smile on her face! Another family group managed to boat over 20 pike in a single trip, with the biggest topping out at 34 inches. The key is staying mobile and trying different techniques throughout the day. Jerry's always checking in with other guides to find out where the bite is hottest.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Northern Pike are the stars of the show on this trip, and for good reason. These toothy predators are some of the most exciting freshwater fish you can target. They grow big in Ontario's cool, clear waters - we're talking fish up to 36 inches or more! Pike are ambush hunters, often lurking in weed beds or near submerged logs. When they strike, it's lightning-fast and powerful. They'll hit just about anything that moves, from flashy spoons to big, noisy topwater lures. The best part? Pike fishing is great all season long, from early summer right through to mid-October when we wrap up our charters. In the warmer months, look for them in deeper, cooler water. As fall approaches, they'll move into the shallows to feed aggressively before winter.

What makes pike so fun for families is their aggressive nature - even smaller "hammer-handle" sized pike will put up a great fight on light tackle. Kids love the excitement of battling these fish, and there's always the chance of hooking into a real monster. Plus, pike are just cool-looking fish with their long, torpedo-shaped bodies and rows of sharp teeth. Don't worry though - Captain Jerry knows how to handle them safely for both you and the fish.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

There's something special about fishing these Ontario waters that keeps families coming back year after year. Maybe it's the pristine scenery, with eagles soaring overhead and the chance to spot other wildlife along the shoreline. Or perhaps it's the thrill of watching your kid reel in their biggest fish ever. For many, it's the quality time spent together away from screens and distractions, sharing laughs and making memories that'll last a lifetime. And let's not forget the fish stories - you'll have plenty to tell after a day out with Captain Jerry!

Time to Book Your Spot

If you're looking for a family-friendly fishing adventure that's sure to be a hit with anglers of all ages, this 6-hour pike charter is hard to beat. Captain Jerry's knowledge, patience, and enthusiasm make for an awesome day on the water.
