🔥 BUCKET LIST ALERT 🔥
Think Great Bear Lake is ONLY about monster lake trout? THINK AGAIN.
Welcome to the 2026 Plummers Arctic Circle Outpost — where when the lakers get tough, the TOUGH go chase NORTHERN PIKE... and we found a back cove FULL of 'em.
THE SETUP: Warm water, Canadian wildfires, and the big lakers were ghosting us the first few days. So what do you do? You ADAPT. You EXPLORE. You go find something that wants to DESTROY your lure.
THE ACTION: My boat partner Rob Tomlin stepped up and absolutely DEMOLISHED a pile of jackfish — 20+ pike in just a couple hours, with multiple fish CRUSHING the 20-pound mark! These weren't just "nice" pike. These were BIG-SHOULDERED BRUISERS with bad attitudes and zero chill.
THE GEAR: We were throwing FishLab Hydro Glides — and when a 20-pound northern pike decides your glide bait looks like an easy meal, you find out REAL quick if your tackle is up to the test. SPOILER: It was.
This is the kind of fishing that gets your heart POUNDING. The kind that makes you laugh like a kid on the boat. The kind that belongs on EVERY angler's bucket list.
✅ Trophy lake trout? GOT 'EM. ✅ Behemoth northern pike? CRUSHED 'EM. ✅ Unforgettable Arctic adventure? LIVED IT.
Plummers Lodges continues to deliver the goods at the Arctic Circle Outpost. If this isn't on your bucket list yet... it needs to be.
