Well...where are you from? You profile says London...England? I would make it easier for folks to recommend a location.

Here is a basic article on pike fishing that I wrote. http://fishingvermont.net/northern_pike_through_the_ice.htm

reelinrolly  what do you mean please help?? i have some boneless filets in the freezer that i can spare no problem!!! what are you fishing on??  lake?? river?? start by setting up near a weed bed in at least 6-10 feet of water. DO use live bait if you can get it. if you're on new ice, and jigging or setting up tipups, keep things quiet so not to spook wary northerns. visually sight in some spots that look like they would hold northerns in the summertime. first and foremost, CONFIDENCE before you head out the next time. lol grumpy  :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(  if you dont post your mailing address, get a hold of trapperdirk. i dont want you starving to death

5-15 feet of water. Try to find the weed beds, drop offs, sand bars, some points? Be mobile, try it all! Best of luck to everyone
