Pike Fishing


Recommended Posts

Anyone been out pike fishing, iv'e been out a bit, most week's but nothing decent, plenty of jacks but the big girl's usually start showing from xmas onwards, just wandering if anyone has had anything a bit special, got myself on a new water and i know that the big one's are there, i just need to find them, here's hoping.

Been doing it all my life and sadly its not worth paying for the rod licence anymore around my parts, most of the double figure fish have gone walk about, a mate of mine had a theory they evolved , grew legs and got on a ferry to Ireland but i got a strange feeling they ended up on the table...

 

Every Xmas without fail i could pull at least five decent doubles out of Three rivers, Warping Drain , Scunny area, but not no more, its been like it for years now, best fish i seen was by my old man 27lb at three rivers but that was 6 years ago.

I haven't done any pike fishing for a few years now but got some lures at the show yesterday in swords. I went out today to pass an hour and got a 6lb on a surface lure was a cracking take so I was just wondering do many people use these surface lures what's ur opinions

Not something i would try in the winter but on some occasions they are worth a try, like you said takes can be explosive and most are only jacks, good luck mate.

I just wouldn't choose a surface lure, but many catch on them, i would choose a few four play in different pattern's and also a few of the rubber shads from savage gear, if all else fails they say the shakespear big s has caught more pike than any other lure but they are a bit different now, depends how deep the water is that your fishing, i like to be able to crank down to the bottom if i have to but find mid water suits as i don't fish deep water's much. You could always have a deadbait out while you cast about, good luck mate. :thumbs:
