Northern pike attract anglers in the Yukon, growing large. They ambush prey in weedy bays, ideal for beginners and serious anglers. Kyle targets pike by boat in summer and through ice in spring.
Standout month. Pike push into shallow back bays immediately after ice out to warm and spawn. Sight casting to aggressive post-spawn fish in 2-4ft of water.
As temperatures rise, pike move to deep weed edges and structural drop-offs. Aggressive strikes on topwater and large spoons near oxygen-rich structure.
Late-ice season. The best time for genuine trophy pike. Large females move into shallow flats before spawn, feeding heavily in full daylight.
Kyle provides everything needed for a successful trip. From high-end casting rods to custom fly patterns and heated winter shelters.
Fishing from a rugged Alumarine boat, covering water to find active pods.
Ice fishing over shallow flats and weed lines using tip-ups and heavy jigs.
LiveScope technology to find structure and track fish movement in real-time.
Most days produce a good number of pike in the 5 to 12-pound range, with bigger fish always a real possibility on the right water. The Yukon holds genuine trophies, and the late-ice window in April gives you the best odds at the fish of the season. We fish single barbless hooks and handle big pike carefully so they swim away strong, which is how a fishery like this stays good.
