I hear ya George..... I'm as guilty as you LOL
The only time I don't look at this wonderful site is when I go out fishing
and let me tell ya, if it's any consolation.... it doesn't get any better with time.... that I can tell ya LOL
So to answer your question.... we're both hooked LOL
Leechman
Nope.... it's not just for bass and walleyes.... caught white fish, perch, channel cats, rock bass, drum, lake trout etc....
I think you should give it another try..... that stuff is lethal
Leechman
You may want to use another reel and unspool the one that you have onto it..... This is what I did for my 2 spinning reels and it's good to go!!!
Leechman
Wouldn't that be Bill Dance LOL cause it sure sounded like him LOL
Talk about being protective..... must of been a little one close by to have this bird react like that
I'd have this thing guard my house and not have to worry about a thing LOL

Heavy mono in the 20Lbs test range with a wire leader is a must..... try and locate flats or bays that hold heavy weeds and you should be good to go.
I use 20Lbs power pro phantom red on all my spinning reels and throw big spoons such as red devils or five of diamonds.... you can even throw crank baits such as big O's or spinnerbaits to entice them. If you are allowed live bait, then rig a wide gap hook with it. You just never know.
You got to remember that pike likes warm shallow waters.... they're on the hunt for bait fish all the time.... when you are able to catch one.... there's more
Good luck and hope that helps you out
