Ahahaha

I use a 6’3 medium rod w/ 20lb braid and palomar knot to my leader or bait. You can get away with lighter line and with a flouro leader for bass but I’ve been using this setup since I use it for pike and bass.

@@citybassboy99 10lb flouro for leader?

Look on the rod for the action and the lure and line ratings. Everything I mentioned in the video can be thrown on any standard medium rod. I would use 15-20lb braid for the line to be safe and that will work for most lures

I haven’t been to any of those yet 😳

I show it in the video!

Thanks bro 💪

Where you from?

Yessir hopefully the Fall they’ll be bigger 💪

Crazy Scots

Thanks bro! I’ve watched a bunch of your videos as well - I like your editing style a lot.

@@citybassboy99Thank you! I just followed you on instagram!! I should start posting some more on there! Good stuff! 👌👌

Ahah the lake is so shallow you can pretty much catch them anywhere 😳

Yeah Pike are delicious but more difficult to fillet than other fish because of their “Y” bone. I’d watch some CZcams videos on it first. I never really keep any fish I catch though.

@@citybassboy99 oh ok ty

I might be aha

@@citybassboy99 i add a bladed treble to the front hook. It adds even more flash and bites.

@@MrFloydroy I’m a fan of feathered hooks and bladed hooks. Extra flare is always nice.

Appreciate the comment man! Glad my videos helped I’m going to make more as the szn goes on :)

Thanks man I really appreciate it! I use 15-25lb braided line and white is my fav jerkbait colour for pike. Tbh if you have young boys I’d go with the X-rap. Comes ready to go out the package, more durable and cheaper. Let me know how it goes! I’ll start bleeping out my swears from now on too ahah

​@@citybassboy99 what brand braid?

@@ragecandy889 this is personal preference but my favourite is PowerPro Super 8 Slick. I think I have it linked in my description.

Yeah I’ve seen a lot of that it works! I use em mainly for musky.

Thanks bro I hope it puts more fish in the boat for you!

Ps what do u think of x raps for pike?

X raps are some of my favourite jerkbaits for pike or in general. Also swim jigs are super valid. I use them a lot for pike and bass.

No problem!

Always wire leader. I don’t want big pike slicing through my braid.

@@citybassboy99 Thank you man. Going this weekend at to islands hoping to get some :) 🎣🎣

Appreciate the comment man! Good to know my experience of about 14ish years fishing aligns with your 40 ahah I must be going in the right direction then. Good luck on the trip!

Are you in southern Ontario?

Damn Idaho that’s sick! Appreciate the love!

Jerkbaits are mint because they can be a “fast” presentation but still finesse since u can hold it in place for a while.

Thanks bro! I have a full in depth video on my channel.

I find It’s much easier to get stronger, controlled downward jerks because of the spinning setup and how you hold a spinning rod. Baitcasters are way too awkward to jerk hard and down.

What leader do you use, and do you use a snap swivel cause usually i heard they lower the action of the lure

@@aiden4206 When i fish for pike I use any normal 6 inch wire leader you find at bass pro, etc. Black or silver colour doesn’t rlly matter. For bass, I use a small clamp that you can also find at bass pro, etc. The clamp is so small I don’t think it impedes the action much. The leader probably does impede the action slightly compared to no-leader but when you’re pike fishing you have no choice you need a leader

@@citybassboy99 Thank you! I just got into pike fishing, so i dont know much.

Yeah it’s the best spot around for perch I’d say

Yeah they were more fun than I thought they’d be. Thanks for your tips 💪

Save soooooo much on gas money ahah

Toronto harbour

Yessir

You do need a harbour license to be in the Toronto harbour aka the Toronto islands/canals. The 2 points of entry to the harbour is the East and West channel

Glad you enjoyed!

Tbh I don’t know the names of the canals but I pretty much fished through all of them. Send me a DM on insta if u want more info

Thanks man I appreciate it!

💪🙏

Sick video🫡

I was able to use it nicely in 6-9ft which is where we fished for most of the day. I was able to see pike follow a few times. But the last spot of the day was 10-40ft and u could definitely see it shine in that 20ft+ zone. Much more better using it out deep like that. Still happy with it shallow though. I tried perspective mode too but that’s too advanced for my first time 😂. I just got it this winter.

Aha ikr it might’ve been my fattest per inch of body length pike I’ve ever caught!

Run the ponds back 👀
