I have been fishing for perch and the likes. I am fishing for these other fish while waiting for a pike to come in. But latley i have notice that pike dont come into the decoy. in fact they shy away from it. but they will come into a tear drop tip with a minnow. i have talked to other fishermen and they say the same thing. that the pike are not decoying. has anyone heard of this and is that typical or normal for pike to do. do they usualy come into a tear drop. I am new to this pike spearing. i have been out pike spearing many times before but never got one, and i did the normal thing. decoys and sucker minnow, but no pike. but soon as i quit using the decoy and use a tear drop or a dare devel i have speared three pike this season. is there something to this, or is it just me and my luck.
Hmm, Swollen gums Late season pike are usually on the feed heavily to load up for pre spawn.
