Re: Favourite Lures,plugs and spinners

There's more to lure fishing than pike and 90% of my time is spent throwing either simple size 2 and 3 Mepps spinners or little wake baits for chub, perch, trout or whatever come along.
For pike specifically, it will depend on the venue but I wouldn't be without spinnerbaits, soft plastics and a Heddon Moss Boss.

Thanks for your reply, concentrating on pike at the moment, the vast range of lures available is bewildering to me would just like a bit of advice on a few good choices.

Re: Favourite Lures,plugs and spinners

conditions play a big part on the day for lure choice so simple rule is if its a bright day fish dark and if its overcast fish slightly brighter but again water condition and clarity play a factor into this. lure wise fox shads 11cm and upwards and slick shads are bang on and if you loose them you only loose a few ££ and not £10-£15 for hard baits. savage gear cannibal shads are always a good shout for a tough day and Z-man diesel minnows always good for me. have a look at rigging them weedless style or on a cheb rig that will save you some gear fishing in snaggy and weedy areas. best of luck
