    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.

  • @davidmerfeld9917
    @davidmerfeld9917 Год назад

    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 .

    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.

    • @KurtHBenner
      @KurtHBenner Год назад

      Thank you for commenting. For me it was having a guide with me to put me on fish. Secondly I traveled to lakes that were not over fished. That said, Pike will crunch a lot of different lures. Unless you get some ideas from the locals, I would stick with my top lures. Best time for a lot of hits would be just after ice-out. They will be very hungry. Good luck!

      I 100% cast. But we have a few guys that troll with spoons. They don’t get the quantity of fish as the guys that cast but they get their fair share of big pike as well as some decent Lake Trout.

    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.

      Good critique. Obviously the ahhh will get better. Haven't been able to get to Canada due to Covid but have multiple trips scheduled for 2022 - I will include your suggestions. That said, I rarely troll ( although some of the older guys I fish with troll in the afternoon ) and the water is usually like glass in the morning and a bit choppy in the afternoon. hope that helps.

    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..

    @jclaxton78 3 года назад

    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.

    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.

    • @KurtHBenner
      @KurtHBenner 3 года назад

      Thanks for your comment. I'm sure you are right. I'm only commenting on my personal experience using the lure. I've fished that duck multiple seasons and I've never had a single hit. That said, the manufacturer (Savage Gear) makes some great lures. I've thrown their "line thru perch" lures and had huge trophy success. Have a great fishing season!

    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.

      Couldn't agree more. If you can't find them, then it's an exercise in futility. Once you locate them then you do need to find which lure will work best. I've had them devour soft plastics one day and the following day they wouldn't even look at them.

    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.
