Is it a sin to use spinning reels for Pike? Or should we really be using a baitcaster? 

[FoAxAssassin]

i also have fireline crystal but ive experienced that it frays a lot easier than any other i have used. i use power pro now and hoping to reel me in some nice pike this summer with white spinners. I also use an Abu Garcia rod/spinning reel. but great tips, thanks for sharing.

Braids never done much for me, even if it's the strongest braid out there you're proper donald if it starts to fray on you (which is quite easy even in moderate weed). I'd get a good brand of mono (15lb+), 8ft carbon rod and an Abu baitcaster. Casts better too in my opinion, should hold a decent fish. I'm from UK btw so you US might need stronger kit...

Don't mean to sound like an ass or anything, but your loosing more fish with your hook mod. Your loosing strength, accuracy, and potentially more pike. Bomber lures have designed the lure to have tri hooks. Otherwise they would have put on two hooks. Interesting line and rod combo. Personally I have a 7:1 high speed reel with a 6'6 med/heavy with 60lbs braid. Super strong!!! Good luck with pulling out those pike!

braid SUCKS im using 10lbs sufix and its snapped on me 2 x!! lures aint cheap. if i go higher test on a reel that recommends 10lbs mono, is that bad?

[gitbox87]

I use a 7.5 foot med/heavy fast action rod with 50lb braid

[mexicanricer]

as a fellow pike angler i would like to know what would posses you to bend the hooks? it weekens the metal. what are you goin to do when you hook a 30 plus fish? oh and with tweleve pound test how do you stop the pike when they head to thick weeds or trees? prayer?
