Download or read book How to Catch Bigger Pike written by Paul Gustafson and published by . This book was released on 2006-05-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few pike anglers can claim to be equally at home when fishing rivers, lakes, gravel pits and lochs. Many can boast a mastery of one type of water, but only someone who has fished as widely and exhaustively as Paul Gustafson can have gained the ability to catch specimen fish consistently from all four. With unique rigs of his own devising, items of tackle of his own invention and scientific discoveries about what pike see and how they can detect without using their eyesight, the author has broken down the barriers of man's knowledge of the species and opened the door to new techniques. A pioneer of night fishing for pike, with remarkable success, he is a firm believer that barometric pressure with light levels play an important part in determining their movements, even to the point whereby success and failure on a given water can be predicted by studying the weather. As a skilled angler, Paul shows us how to choose and use the most effective tackle to catch this beautiful predator and as an experienced naturalist he gives us a fascinating insight into how a pike lives, moves and seizes its prey. By reading this book, anyone can develop a technique that will enable them to catch bigger pike when fishing in any location. It is an inspirational guide to the species that will have everyone going back to their sport with renewed enthusiasm and considerably more potential for success
Download or read book How to Catch Pike written by A. R. Matthews and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Catch Pike Pike often stay in one particular lair for a long time. After a big flood, try slack water off which a fast stream is running. Pike know they will get a good dinner in the slack where other fish have taken refuge from the swift stream. Tread lightly on the bank when approaching a known pike lair. Try for pike directly a river or lake begins to clear. The fish are often ravenous then. Spin right up to the edge - a pike may lurk under any bunch of sedges or weeds. Always see that your reel runs freely and is in perfect order. Keep it well cleaned and oiled. Touch up the point of the gaff from time to time with a file. If a landing-net is used, it must be large and strong and be well sunk before your fish is brought over it. Place your bait-can in the water while fishing - it keeps the baits fresh and lively - but see that it is safely attached to the bank by a piece of cord. A mill-dam is often a good place for a pike.
