Northern Pikeminnow are large, predatory fish found in rivers and lakes of the Pacific Northwest. They have a slender, torpedo-shaped body and feed primarily on smaller fish. Known for their impact on salmon populations, they are targeted in bounty programs aimed at reducing their numbers. Despite this, they are a strong and challenging catch for anglers.
