Fishing in the North requires gear that’s both durable and effective against large, aggressive fish. Here’s how to select tackle that won’t let you down:
-
Lake Trout: Use large spoons, jigs, or tube baits.
-
Pike: Big, flashy lures and steel leaders are essential.
-
Walleye: Try jigs tipped with minnows or soft plastics.
-
Fly Fishing: Bring 8–10 wt rods with streamers or topwater flies.
Bonus Tip: Always check local regulations on barbless hooks.
