What are some of your favorite lures or baits to use for pike and muskie? Bucktails,suick,and suckers, I have even witnessed muskie taken on crayfish.
my favorite is a big white safty pin spinner bait with white willow leaf blades. this time of year its dead baits though.
There are so many lures that are fun to catch pike on. I would say my hands down favorite is a surface lure or one that will swim about a foot below the surface. Something like a Countdown or a buzzbait. There is nothing like the feeling of a pike coming up and slamming the bait on or near the surface when you can see it all happening.
Im kinda "old school" and I like the ol 4inch red and white daredevil, in the spring I like a nip-a-ditty. smokey
A red & white Daredevil, a plain #5 Mepps Agila silver or gold, a #12 or 14 Husky Jerk- color based on water conditions. However, the past few years I have caught most of my pike on a plain lead head jig and a white twister tail (grub for you bass fishermen).
