Jiggin for pike
Lundin-loading:
Gonna hit it tomorrow, tied up a fresh batch, here's a few that ill be throwing.
Skipper:
You are getting dangerously close to something I use when they move shallow in the fall.
I call it a Dougie... I saw Doug Stange using it on TV once, hence the name. The thumper tail swimbait (like the one on your third jig) can be a huge trigger. Good luck!
Lundin-loading:
Between the tail and the hair they fall pretty slow fluttering with every movement. I'm really digging these swim tails.
Skipper:
Just make sure you have a bunch, pike teeth really tear up the plastics.
jjz:
Jigging has produced my biggest pike in both hard and soft water. bucktail jig, 1/2oz jig w curlytail or paddle tale they all work. Pike will hit anything but I think the key thing that makes jigs so good is they get down deep fast. Big pike are cold water fish, almost completely different from the little hammerhandles you find in the shallows in the summer and a jig will get down where they live.
