no bat or rat or duck

I had a cleo for years. Always tried it. Never one fish.

Spoons rule, especially the yellow with red diamonds

I live in Manitoba. We used to have massive pike in some spots in the southern basin of lake Winnipeg, especially in the 70’s. We used red devil spoons, and brought in some whoppers. They were so big in one area, we used to avoid it.

i have fished for pike for 60 years. i look for 10 to 12 foot of water with weeds about half way down. i love pike fishing in canada. if you want bigger pike look for deeper water with a weedy bottom and drop a smelt down.

Mostly agree. Good video.

I've caught a lot of pike with the red and white daredevil spoon.

He's a master baiter.

Thx for this vid Kurt! I’m in Texas and no pike here! I’m visiting interior Alaska and now have a plan to hammer some pike!!!

Mepps is good but my #1 pike lure is a Charteruse Spinner Bait tipped with a tail "something wiggly". You can go to any lake and nail them with this lure and cost under $10.00 dollars. Id have two or three in the tackle box. Try Devils Lake or Lake Sakakawea monster pikes there and no Passport needed. I also custom paint blank jerk baits specifically for the lake I fish. I'm a Master Baiter .

Big plastic eels.

And ahhhhh. Ahhhhhhhhh and ahhhhhhhhh

My top 3 would be spoons, spinner baits, and F18 size Rapala's. For spoons I like 3/4 oz Len Thompsons in orange and yellow patterns, and 3/4 Williams spoons in gold and silver. I switch out the trebles for singles, and often add various plastic trailers to change the running speed/ depth, or even get them to plane on top. IMO nothing can touch spoons for versatility, durrability, and consistency but spinnerbaits are pretty close.

I took your advice and we slaughtered the pike in Northern Minnesota. Cheers

“Bad day was only 25 fish…disappointing” DUDE WHAT

The five of diamonds lands more pike than anything else I have ever used. Out performs by a minimum of 3:1. Absolutely bizarre.

I've just recently been wanting to get into Northern pike fishing. Is there any tips for people just starting out.

Never caught anything with a red and white Daredevil , if Im musky or pike fishing I find a simple silver spoon works well and some deep diver rapalas double jointed

Whopper ploppers are great too for topwater, bass and pike both love these

Do you guys prefer trolling or just regular casting? Have found success trolling pike with spoons, not much reeling.

Runner up

Mepps #4 bucktail

Oh ONLY 25 pike lol

Thank you for the very informative video!!!

In Canada we consider Len Thompson the original and the imitations the knockoffs.

Pretty close to my results, especially at the top. Lately my top lures have been the bigger and chunkier Rapala X-Rap Jointed Shad and Husky Jerk, but I've also done great on the 12cm X-Raps. Swimbaits are also effective, and can be worked through cover if rigged properly, which can be huge casting right along reeds.

Hey man, STOP with the ahh ahhhh ahh ahhhhh geezus.

Not bad info BUT: If you do another one of these try to include what time of day, water temp, was it overcast or sunny, were you trolling or casting, was the water smooth or choppy..... stuff like that. (also, stop saying ahhh).

Thanks for sharing!

Box standard lures not a patch on my home made lures and spinner baits.. Put it this way when I leave my home to go on holiday my lures get locked in a safe. A true master angler uses lures evolved over generations not 5 lures bought in any sports outlet or found in any old tackle box. The 5 best lures you could ever use are those created through experience..

Never been to Manitoba to fish but living in Ontario we have some good spots. Topwater sounds exciting for Pike. Got most of my recent success with paddletails on a jig and the five of diamonts has been great too. Nice video bro.

This guy looks 100% like he goes fishing in Saskatchewan. Most likely Jan Lake.

what size x raps are those

I'm just getting back into fishing. I used to fish exclusively for pike (the bass up in NY don't get big). I recall 3 lures were pretty much mainstays for me: Spoons (Daredevil or knockoff versions), Spinnerbaits (not the Inline type) and the Rapala Husky Jerk. The Husky Jerk was so deadly. They couldn't resist. We used to put Suspend Dots on the lure, testing it in an aquarium to make sure it suspended perfectly. We'd replace the treble hooks with the Gamakatsu brand treble. Good times.

Saskatchewan is your best choices for fishin Canada trust me

Great video, I appreciate the insight.

Lure fishing is a real game of pot luck no matter what lure you use. There is no such thing as a bad lure from any decent company. They all catch at some stage. The duck catches tones of pike on irish and uk canals in summer.

Omega sea master? Looks like the James Bond edition.

Great. We have a very similar top for northern pike in Russia

You said the spinners were “beyond repair”. Don’t buy that, just a bended shaft, for 10-12 bucks you can order 100 ss wire shafts, 6 inch, loop at one end at any lure making online business. Bented, rusted, or just to replace them with a larger diameter wire, is a basic repair for any fisherman.

No cap but the bronze spoons are some of the best lures to use they may look really boring but they catch a lot of pike

i have a sticker on my boat that says master angler

thanks for the tips! I use heddons for topwater and daredevils and Mepps mostly for pike, also collect them, couple on my page if interested! new sub here, good luck out there!

In addition to the classics your showcase those #kanalgratis guys have hooked me.

With pike I think locating the fish is priority #1, and lures a distant second

I live in Northern Manitoba, 5 of diamonds hits big pike. We caught 60 pike in 3 hours lol spent more time taking the lures out of the fish/releasing than casting lol

Your gay partner?

I fish northwestern Wisconsin’s small shallow lakes. Zmann Chatterbait in White with a White 5”Grub tale. Also a whiteish Squarebill any brand will do. I nail them every weekend. We are entering the tail end is August, water is in the low 70’s and the larger Pike are getting more active. Largest Pike this Summer was 32.5”. In July.

I can not believe the success I have had this summer in Northwestern Wisconsin throwing a 3 Foot depth Squarebill. The Pike just hammer them. The brand does not matter, dirt cheap or high dollar. They smack them all. I have actually had monster open the split rings and loose the fish. All of a sudden My lure comes flying back at me with no hooks. Crazy year. I have fishes this lake every weekend in open water season for 14 years and the have never hit this hard. I cast in the Whitest Squarebill I can find. Bass like it too but I have to use a wire leader to hang onto the lure.

Thanks for this video, really helped!
