This has been hands down my sh*ttiest Pike stretch in the passed two years .

I fish Farrington 3-4 times a week throwing big stuff and have yet to pull 1 pike out.

You need to change the way you fish. Get a fresh BANKER, cut out two big filets with scales on, put one filet on a big hook with a float and cast it very far, work it slowly and you going to get them!

Maybe one day when I get real good and frustrated ill cheat and use bait haha. I've seen some pics of 10-12 lb pikes come out of there this year all on 50/50 bait and art.

Its bait, but not a live bait, so its not really cheating.

NO type of live bait or fillet or anything organic is allowed in the contest... Only artificial's are to be used....
