Winnipeg River - Northern Pike

[Ruth]

I don't care for the jack fish that much - I find them a bit strong and oily. I went on a 3 day fly in fishing trip up to Trout Lake in the NWT a couple of years ago. Wonderful fishing although you really could not call it "sport" fishing as you pretty much got a fish with just about every cast. We only kept the pickerel up to our limit. We had native guides and they would keep quite a few of the jacks as they used them for dog food.
