The trout season in Category 1 waters ends next week for us anglers in Haute-Savoie. That means some of us will be trading in our little flies for XXL feather lures in search of pike. As for me, my fishing spots are exclusively Category 2 enclosed waters. But I have to admit that it must be fun to fish for these fish in rivers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m bringing this up because I stumbled upon a video of Landon Hintz cruising down one of his home rivers in a drift boat to hunt for the maskinong\u00e9. Basically, behind that name lies the cousin of our pike\u2014but in a bodybuilder version. It\u2019s the best the Esox genus has to offer. But the best part is that he\u2019s fishing for them peacefully from his boat right in the middle of the forest. That said, let\u2019s be honest\u2014you\u2019ve got to be patient, but that\u2019s part of fishing, too. You don\u2019t always land a big one. You\u2019ll see Landon explain his mindset and also the fish\u2019s behavior, how to fish for it, what the bite feels like\u2026 In short, it\u2019s a superb video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
