Release em'

Hey Guys/Gals,

I am having trouble finding out what are some good lures/baits for pike. I hear people saying put a live minnow under a float, but where can I buy minnows in Toronto! Any tips would be appreciated such as what to use a bait, when to fish, where to fish not actual locations just Pike habitats. I have read the topic "Pike and Bass Lures" and have tried some of them, but none are producing. Anything is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Also try the storm thundersticks in the 4 1/2 size ( shallow divers, black back/silver prism has produced the best for me 38.5" my first time out last sunday and last year my biggest was 43" on the same bait) Very erratic presentation works best........ people might think your nuts but trust me if you want a really good chance at monsters over the top erratic and the way to go

Another good lure is the storm swim and spin in the perch curly tail. Swimming the bait is 7" long and comes in at 1 ounce. I never you the spinner blade hook up for the lure, just remove it and just use as a swimbait on its own. It's an awesome lure especially for fishing later season for the large girls deeper down.

Hope this helps Go ESOX!!!

Didn't get to fish the like derby at belwood lake this year, wondering if anyone had or heard results ?
