Comins Lake Pike Out
ATTENTION PIKE-OUT PARTICIPANTS:
We have been closely watching the weather and have made the decision to cancel the 2025 Save Comins Lake Pike-Out scheduled for Saturday, October 11th.
Safety is our number one priority, and the forecasted conditions do not meet our standards for hosting an event like this. Temperatures are forecasted to drop over 20F in less than 24 hours prior to the pike-out scheduled for Saturday. The abrupt temperature drop, unsettled weather Thursday through Saturday, and high winds that are forecasted for Ely will also result in very challenging and slow fishing conditions this weekend.
In addition to the safety concerns, the intent of the Pike-Out is to remove Northern Pike through another means of suppression while also providing an opportunity for NDOW staff to interact with and educate anglers on the impacts of Northern Pike on a fishery and the associated management challenges.
We know anglers travel from all over the state (some even out of state) for this event, so we want to ensure that we set it up for success and safety. Keep following us for information about our 2026 event!
If you are still interested in fishing for Northern Pike this fall at Comins Lake, please reach out to Heath Korell for more information - [email protected] or 775-289-1655.
