In Alaska we'd sometimes have time to fish waiting for helicopters, the weather to lift, etc. Always dreaming of a fire near a river with sheefish, we'd suddenly find ourselves with time on the Kobuk. Inevitably, the first fish were grayling, and then someone would hoop and holler he's got a big one. Never an inconnu, always a pike, in clear very cold rivers. We were dissappointed, but that was then and there. The biology primer that you gave was fascinating, cool stuff to know.<br /><br /><br />GreggGregghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02623587945737239141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8701846661540905420.post-450207503516979972012-02-15T07:04:40.641-06:002012-02-15T07:04:40.641-06:00Hey Bill – streamers are probably your best bet.

A google search "pike flies" will give you lots of ideas.

There is pike in the lake I fish and I have even seen some in the back of some of nooks I fish. I have been following your blog and some of the other blogs to know that it is an awesome fish to land on the fly rod. What other flies do you do besides streamers?Bill Trussellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15351692272817692157noreply@blogger.com
