I fish Northerns when we go to canada every year. We mostly fish for walleye but when we get in the northern areas of the lakes we fish for them. We only go in the spring. We catch them on Williams Wablers and Daredevils. seems to work good for us. My cousin caught one this year that was 31 inches long, but we have caught them in the 40' s before.

We fish for both Northerns and Walleye' s. My dad, this past May, caught a 37 inch, 19 lb fish in a canal nearby. he caught it on some lure (cant remember the name), that i never knew existed till he caught it. It was a massive fish!

47" legth. 22" around. 30 lbs and some change

I caught her fishing deep weed beds with a johnson silver minnow(the best)

Wow! Real nice pike. My Dad and I have been going to a lodge in Ontario for 6 years. My Dad has caught 2 of the largest pike between the 2 of us. But i' ve caught the biggest walleye, 9lbs! One pike was 42" and one 40" . Don' t know the weights, didn' t have a scale but both fish were measured and released to fight another day. Both were caught on a gold williams wabler. My Dad hardly ever takes that lure off his line. I don' t blame him! I have yet to catch one over 37" . Not bad but my goal is one over 40" . Maybe this year. We' re heading up Sept.20th thru Oct.4th, can' t wait
