![]() ![]() So for you people that don't fish IRL as you can see Fishing planet is on the mark as far as gear goes. Just need to be careful casting with this rod. The Rapalas are too big for this setup really but I still use them. There is a top water frog lure and a nice juicy Bucktail Spinner. The leader is 12 inches long and is used because these fish can tear thru your line but not the steel leader. I want the heavier line and lines can snap easy if the reel gets backlashed casting a heavy lure. I used 50 pound braid line (has a thicknes of 20 pound line) and a 45 pound steel leader. I live Lake St Clair (Muskie, Pike, Walleye, Bass mecca of the midwest USA). Spring is here and I was putting new line on my reels and took a pic of my goto Lures for Pike fishing here in Michigan. ![]() 8 ft 6/0 Lemon Crank does work too but once again, you won't catch as many.This is Chesterfield_Angler (in game name) And when you find the sweet spot to cast to, you can get 2 a minute. ![]() Yes they cost extra for every fish you catch but I did a Pike only day and hit $29,000 cash so it more than pays for itself. 7/0 Hook with shiners is what most people use. Now that was only 8 catches in 3 hours of peak time, if you concider how many pike you catch in the same time floating with shiners then it shows how ineffective the lures really are here for pike. The only thing that have some moderate success for me is the big #6/0 spinner. Popper 4/0 : 2 catches ( lots of miss hits ) I did some more testing during another peak time: ( Almost exactly the same as EzFishLure's setup, just a different reel ) The problem is they don't bite on lures. ![]() The problem is not the gear, I have strong gear. If going for pike you dont need to cast far so this is an ok setup :D especialy combined with a kyak :D Publicado originalmente por darrren:i use cosmocast and a cyclone55 is to strong for any of the rods atm i use it with 0.6 floro and can use drag 5 safly hope this helps ![]()
