LANDING PIKE When it comes to landing pike, a large, knotless landing net with arms of at least 36 inches should be used. Ensure that the mesh of the net is well sunk before drawing the pike over it and lifting the net sufficiently to retain the pike.

Holding the net as shown in the photograph will take the strain from the frame of the net, and allow you to carry net, rod and fish safely together to the prearranged unhooking area. If neccessary, gather up the mesh to raise the pike further from the ground.

If fishing with a friend you can keep the pike in the water in the landing net while they ready the unhooking equipment.

Never lay pike down on hard or rough surfaces, always use an area of soft grass or better still a well padded unhooking mat.

When lure fishing many experienced pike anglers prefer to land their pike by hand. This is a method best used on small fish, and only when hooks are clearly visible and avoided. At all other times a net is to be prefered.

Freshwater Fishing - Trout Secrets

What spot on a river is most often overlooked?
Palmerton: Hidden seams in the middle of the river, where slight depressions in the bottom produce a change in the water only visible to the trained eye.
Gunn: Many anglers wade into the water that they should be fishing. Before entering the water always stop, look, and study what’s right in front of you.
Whitley: Near banks, very tight to the shore. Of course, this is where most people walk into the river. It’s worth casting before you get your boots wet.
