Suggested lures for Oct/ Nov northern pike
 

Any suggestions?

Spinnerbait? Sluggo? Redfins?

Thanks

John

Are these for CT or RI pike?

Yeah.

Someone with local knowledge might be more helpful, but I used to fish for pike in Messalonskee and Auburn lakes in Maine. I did well on spinner baits, timberdoodles and small pikie metal-lips.

I would suggest this time of year to go with baits like rattling crankbaits such as RatLTraps, stickbaits, large "flashy" inline bucktail spinners like Mepps, heavy spinnerbaits, topwater plugs, and weedless spoons. Don't overlook the old classic red and white daredevil... deadly! This time of year your likely to find them on deeper edges off points with a lot of weeds, as they love to ambush their prey.

Thanks guys.

I went looking for them in RI last Nov after hearing about some giants being caught by accident. They were introduced to an area I like to fish. On my second cast I had one about 30" on an sp minnow...

Oh , I have no doubt . Goosefish knows where they are :fishin:

I do well on needlefish. Found that out years ago testing plugs here in VT. In fact any plug that stripers like, pike do also.

Do a little "redneck" fishing with 1/4 stick of dino and a cooler full of beer!

ask muskeyslayer.....he knows his pike
