Guided Chain Pickerel Charter

Chain Pickerel (cousin of the Northern Pike) fishing is a thrilling pursuit that tests the skills and patience of even the most experienced angler. They are known for their aggressive strikes and powerful fights and are highly sought after for their size and tenacity. Catching a Chain requires careful planning, knowledge of their habits, and the right techniques. When targeting CP, we will focus on areas of abundant vegetation, submerged logs and shallow waters where these predators like to ambush their prey. These fish are known for their sharp teeth and quick reflexes, so a strong and steady hand is essential when setting the hook. The battle with a CP is intense and exhilarating, as these fish are known for their explosive strikes and acrobatic leaps. Landing a CP requires finesse and determination, as they are skilled at throwing hooks and breaking lines. However the reward of holding a toothy monster is a testament to the angler's skill and dedication to the sport! Book a morning or evening Charter with one of our Professional Certified Guides on one of the many Pickerel lakes around central Nova Scotia. We provide all the bait, rods, reels and tackle. With the aid of our boat we will get you into those hard to access fishing spots. No license required for those under 16. Book your trip today, for a chance at these ferocious predators! Price subject to applicable taxes. Price includes 2 anglers, add a third for $81.25.
