Go Retro to Catch More River Pike

Ойын-сауық

Using a 1970s Lure and an Old Pike fly, I demonstrate how to catch cautious River Pike by abandoning modern lures and employing old Skool tried and tested methods. I also give advice on staying mobile and stealthy and get to share the magic of pike fishing with a passing family, grandmother Hazel, mother Keeley and little Axton who got to stroke his first Pike! Enjoy!

    Great catch and timing for others to witness while out for a walk. Good on you. I’ve also caught using the older Abu Hi-Lo lures and still rate them highly

    Thank you, it is great to showcase angling in a good light to a world that often passes by waterways oblivious to the magic of what lies beneath

    piker, how did you weight your pike fly to be able to cast with a normal rod ? or are they already pre weighted. I would love to try that method on the river for chub too if there are any similar chub flies. thanks.. local boy jim

    Hi matey, I will be doing a new in depth video to show how to do this and yes, it is deadly for all species. Perch too! You just need a selection of Cheb weights but I find 7gram to be perfect in most river conditions. Thanks and I will do a specific video breaking down the method
