Fishing guide
Northern Pike (Esox lucius), is a species of carnivorous fish of the genus Esox (the pikes). Found in Europe and North America, the Northern Pike usually has a greyish-green body with light-yellow oval dots and no scales on the lower half of the gill cover. Pike grow to a relatively large size: lengths of up to 150 cm (59 in) and weights of 25 kg (55 lb). But the average length is about 100 cm (39 in) and average weight is 8 kg (17.5 lbs). Northern pike prefer to stay in heavy cover, waiting to ambush its unsuspecting prey.
If you prefer to use natural baits, then the best way to catch Northern Pike would be to use Shiners on a size #6/0 hook.
If you are more into artificial lures, you should go for some Jerkbaits.
The most successful lure is Pike Golem Lure 2 m, #8/0.
