If you have never been on one of those canadian pike fishing trips or vacations then you just don’t know what you are missing. The great canadian outdoors, the Canadians Rockies, the wind blowing and the monster northern pike caught in your fishing rod (that would be great, right?) Well, all of this can become a reality if you go on a canadian pike fishing trip. Let’s see what this means and what you need to have in order to start such a trip.
Ah, canadian northern pike fishing! It is such a great feeling to have a northern pike trapped in your fishing rod. And because of the power that these type of fish have, you will most likely know when you have got a pike on the end of your line as your whole boat will start to tremble (don’t worry, there haven’t been recorded any cases about lost fishermen or men over board because of any pike, but who knows?).
The worse things about the northern pike isn’t the moment that you feel one up the rod, nope. It’s the time that he is in your boat that is the crucial one and this is the time when you must be very careful or you can lose the fish. These fish tend to twist a lot and they can even get rolled in your fishing road. If this happens you will, in most cases, have to tie up the line that is covering the fish as there will probably be no way that you can untangle it from there. There goes another rod! Damn!
This is exactly why you must be extra careful when landing a canadian northern pike in your boat. It can ruin a perfectly good rod in mere seconds and the joy of catching such a great fish will become overlooked when you have to throw out a good rod. But if you take control of the situation, you will end up with a fish and no “casualties” on your part.
A good advice here is to learn to distinguish the pike from his close cousin the muskellunge, which is similar in looks but also has a few different things. Just do a search for these 2 fishes and see what one has and the other hasn’t. This can help you in you canadian pike fishing trip as you will be able to know what you got in the rod and how to effectively catch it.
Some good places to go on a canadian pike fishing vacation are ontario canada and manitoba. These places will offer some of the best fishing trips you have ever had and it is quite likely that you will also catch a bundle of fish, if you are at least a little knowledgeable at the type of fish that live in those waters and how to catch them. So, what are you waiting for? Start researching for that canadian pike fishing trip and go live it!
