Leader Question

[kb]

Id like to set some TU for dedicated  pike fishing.  What is the best leader material to use on these?  What sized hook?  I seemed to do pretty good with #2 longshanked pickerel hooks, but Im sure there are better.

Thanks

60lb steel leader with good crimps and 1/0 treble hook. And the northerns still chew through the steel leader every once in a while. And we also catch just as many walleye on this setup as any other setup would.
