billybaltic 308 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 I don't agree with the glove, not for me, sorry, if your not sure on unhooking pike, take someone who is and they will show you how to unhook easily and also there is no need to be scared of pike, they will show you how to handle pike, once you have been shown by someone it will make thing's easier for you, good luck. 1 Quote Link to post
Rm02 6 Posted July 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 what is the best way to handle them? I'm not sure i know anyone that goes for pike. It's all specimen these days... R Quote Link to post
billybaltic 308 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 It's a bit hard to explain without showing you the actual fish, you would be better to watch a few pike being caught and unhooked on youtube you will soon notice how they all hold them a similar way, try typing in unhooking pike, or maybe someone can explain it of here.

BOLSTER 808 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Mooch them lakes just before it gets dark & see if you can see any pike attacking fish , just keep trying different spot's you'll bump in to one eventually Good luck. 1 Quote Link to post

billybaltic 308 Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 Once the weather start's to cool right down, that's when to get out for pike, some don't fish for them till 1st october, other's wait till the first frost, good luck. 1 Quote Link to post
