Big pike like places where there is cover to ambush prey.  Weeds, logs, points etc.  This time of year the bog hogs the females are moving into.weedy bays in prep for spring spawning. That's where you need to go.  Big bait the bigger the better.

 This weekend I am going to look for weeds in Lake Poisnett and try to fish over them.

most of our bigger ones come in the 20'-30' zone. also, if your just after the bigguns use big baits 5"+ .
