me and my father in law is going to canada to fish for some pike. we are going within the next month. Has anyone been up there fishing before if so what are some tips, baits, or other precausions that i should know about thanks.
when i get back i will post some pics of the Fish we catch
we are going the first week of august. the lake he went to a few times is
Five Mile lake or camp ground ( or somthing like that ) it is in ontario.
He said he dont care where we go tho so if you guys have had a lot of luck on a certain lake at around august let me know about it.
i am going to make a list and order some lures that you guys have mentioned. i think it will be a good way to start.
thanks for the help

That is gospelIf you are not getting hung up you aren't fishing.
Get about 10 feet of dog chain and wad it up in to a dangling mess of chain and hook it all in a wad and tie it to quarter inch heavy line about 20-30 feet long. Hook a carabiner to the wad of chain and tie a loop in the other end of the line you can dog off on the boat. You troll around the lake a lot for pike, up where the dead falls fall in to the water and you are getting hung up all the time. If you are not getting hung up you aren't fishing. When you get snagged and can't get it loose then snap the carabiner on your line and keep the fishing line tight. Let the chain slide down your line and then jangle it up and down until it gets tangled up in the other hooks and you can pull your lure back up or break it loose with out loosing it.
ok may be a dumb questions but what size daredevils and sweedish pimples should i get.

Pike are a blast to fish for. Stock up on red and white daredevils, swedish pimples, any thing chrome, shiny with treble hooks on it. If you are looking through your tackle box from bass fishing you want the biggest, shiniest, wobbling things you've got. You need a good stiff medium action rod, 15-20 pound line and a steel leader, three inches or so. Big, shiny, deep diving, rattle traps are good too.
