  My most successful decoy this year was a golf ball, 90+% came into that. I usually had live sucker also, but theh always nosed the golf ball.

A northern pike and goldfish color.
Until this last season I didn't have a northern decoy, easily pulled in more pike than any other decoy I've used.

I've always done well with the big gold pIke. I like a couple shiners or suckers to see what is coming. Never used a golf ball.

As tiring as it is looking at a red and white, good things usually happen.
