Well-known member
went pikeing again with me 2 boys hard work lost quite a bit of gear since i started fishing last monday this new adventure has probably cost me and my boys around £40 in lures broke my heart getting snagged with 2 £10 lures and not getting them back due to all of the crap people have thrown in the lake over the years,however i was rewarded with a fine double figure pike approx 11 to 12lbs totally engulfed my lure down it,s gob and bent the net in the process i wondered why the other lad tucker had a huge net well i just need a 20lb now so i hope to get that the next time 3rd time lucky i hope.

Been pike fishing for a few years, my favorite method is lure fishing but I use soft plastic grubs which are a hell of a lot cheaper than crank baits and can be fished fairly snag free if you rig them texas style with american style worm hooks. My second favorite method is a deadbait under a float, I work these deadbait like you would a wobbled deadbait but the float keeps it clear of the bottom and snags,they can be worked slow or fast, left to sit around for a while, it's a very versitile method and offers the same advantages as lure fishing and deadbaiting combined. I've taken pike well over 20lbs from the river tees this way.
