Hickory Lake Campground Cooperative Association

Anglers on Hickory Lake (as well as all other lakes in the immediate Aitkin area) are allowed to harvest up to 10 Northern Pike however only two may be longer than 26″.  All Pike that are between 22 to 26 inches are to be immediately released as this is now a protected slot.
