Pike fishing on the pool
Hi, I was hoping to go lure fishing on the as lake as I was hoping to land my first pike. So I was wondering whitch pegs are best, what size lures are the best and ultimately if anyone has been pike fishing there recently and caught much.
Hi,
I stick to the pike season so haven't tried the lake in the warmer months. There aren't really many pike in there, but there are a couple.
Pike are usually found around their prey, this varies depending on the day. Look for strikes, shoals of fish scattering and jumping in panic. Start at one end and have a few casts in each peg.
I would use a fairly small lure as the pike don't go very big.
You say you want to catch your first pike, are you confident in unhooking one? The thing to remember is a pike won't intentionally bite you, the only way you may get cut is by incorrectly holding one or being scared. Make sure you have the right tools so you don't get caught out.
There are a few keen pikers on here so if you are unsure about anything ask away and someone will help.
