Interesting post Danny. I have fished the river probably 5 times this summer and only caught one pike and then mostly bass. For some reason I catch more pike in the spring. That seems to be the best time for me. However, I definitely see MUCH more people in the spots that I go to where five years ago I would rarely see people. Kayak or not, I still see more people. I think the river is getting much more fishing pressure. Even though most people don't keep the pike I bet it has an effect on them biting again. I also think that having rain makes the fish move around a bit. There has been plenty of times when I would catch nothing one day and then go back two days later after a rain and catch one. I guess I need to find new spots.
