Brilliant Mark, good start! I can't believe we are back into the Pike fishing season again! Love fishing for all species, but pike fishing is my thing.
Good to see you our mate the season up on us now as long as the weather ok it will be good my husband ready but the local river very high so it be the canal may be all the best to your family good luck
What more could you ask for on Monday nights!!! Fishing for pleasure and pike season! Come on mark!!!! 🤞 I’m gonna be following the channel right through the season, best of luck mate! Kind regards, Dave.
Well done Mark your off to a good start. Enjoy all your videos but really like the predator ones pike perch zander eels .I hope you have a really good pike season KTF
Last week fishing for perch, and a pike grabbed my best fish at the net, same with a good chub a few weeks back. Towed round for ages on 4 lb line, a size 12 hook and 1 lb tc rod. Fortunately lip hooked outside the toothy area, another double. I've also gone to circle hooks the last two seasons, like you I avoid big baits, too many dropped or pulled out of. Gone back to floats this year after experiment with ledgering only. All the best, and one fish is not a blank!
It's your time for the pike mate not mine just yet our own choices but at least you cought on your first outing well in you've kicked your pike season of with one on the bank so positive thinking . Cheers ..
It may only be a jack, but it's a pike on the bank nonetheless and a nice one too. I've yet to try circle hooks as I have been using size 4 wide gape carp hooks also hooked through the snout, but the opposite way, that is, with the point poking out between the eyes. Good luck for the rest of the season. I shall be watching with interest.
At the moment I'm using AFW and Drennan soft trace, I made a video a while back making your own traces th-cam.com/video/ZsSszgG3EHo/w-d-xo.html But have stopped using trebles. I'll include a segment on my circle hook traces using knottable wire in the next video
Thank you for taking the time to share another video hopefully you catch more in the coming weeks and months
I hope so! Thanks for taking the time to comment

I use Carp hooks for Perch, never had an issue when a rogue pike was hooked
Hi. Just wondering why you use a 2oz ball lead on such a shallow water. Would just a couple of swan shot be adequate? Genuine question 👍
Because I don't want to get caught off guard when they run it off, especially as it can happen several times in one day
@@Fishing4Pleasure ah, ok. Thanks 👍
Hi pal what’s wire you using wee video on the wire set up would be good mate
