Description
The Pike Fly, crafted by Umpqua Signature Tyer Larry Dahlberg, is a robust and versatile pattern designed specifically for targeting pike. Its substantial size and durable construction make it ideal for withstanding the aggressive strikes and sharp teeth of pike. The fly's design incorporates a combination of materials that mimic the appearance and movement of pike prey, effectively enticing these formidable predators.
Pro Tip
When fishing the Pike Fly, use a heavy-duty, fast-sinking line to quickly reach the depths where pike are typically found. Employ a slow, steady retrieve with occasional pauses to mimic the erratic movement of injured prey. Focus on areas with submerged structures, drop-offs, and weed beds, as pike often ambush their prey from these locations. Utilizing a wire leader is essential to prevent bite-offs from pike's sharp teeth
