Know More on Pike Fishing

Pike Fish is found in Arctic fresh waters which are large in size and are seen mostly in rivers and lakes. They can feed on everything that floats like Chub, Walleyes, other Pike or Suckers. For Pike Fishing, small lures and baits are not effective and rather Pike Fishing Tackles should be used, although the small Pike can also be sporty on light tackle and would save a dull day on water. The spawning season for Pike is the spring months of May and June during which they frequent the shallow of lakes or warm weeds where they can easily lay eggs and make these spots very attractive for fishing.

The best part is that Pike are one of the easy to catch fish and are generally found around their prey. These are the weedy portions around shoals, bays, islands, rocky areas or at the shores of streams or rivers. These weeds also provide protection to the Pike eggs to which the prey fish get attracted and make it easy for fish hunters to do fishing. The Pike move in the lakes all year round hunting for food in normal water temperature and generally they get caught while fishing due to this frequenting in the shallows.

Some of the Pike anglers love to fish from the river bank as there are many developed river and lake fisheries which provide good access for fishing whereas the other Pike anglers like to tackle the fish from a boat. All the major Pike waters offer Pike angling and boat hiring services which are mostly provided by the accommodation providers on the nearest pike waters in their area. The Pike anglers use a variety of methods for fishing like static dead baiting, wobbling, lure and fly fishing and spinning. A Pike Fishing Tackle should be strong enough, sturdy and handy to fight the large fish as it is the most important feature of fishing. These tackles are available in all sizes and are of different kinds therefore, the best suited tackle should be chosen for Pike Fishing.

Some other accessories in the tackle bag should be like an ideal sized rod as the extra length of the rod helps in controlling the Pike's head and provides more flexibility in catching the fish, a strong reel with a tough disc drag as the Pike make short and strong runs which can strip the fly reel with their force and if the drag is not strong enough, then they could pull out the line and land the people in soup, therefore, a good reel with a strong drag system should be used to retain the fish around bay and a line should also be there in the tackle bag that matches the weight of fly rod. A bass tapered leader can be used to flip over large flies but however, a Pike specific leader is always better to use. A wire or a braided trace which are strong enough can also be kept to tie the teeth of fishes to restrain them from cutting the line. These are all the accessories which should be carefully chosen for quality and kept in the tackle bag for Pike Fishing.
