Pre-Spawn Pike Fishing Ireland. Tips, Lures, Methods & Where to Find Them.

  • Опубліковано 19 чер 2024
  • Here in the video, I am fishing for Pre-Spawn pike using small lures, large lures and flies. The last couple of weeks before they spawn, they shake off the winter moods and start chasing the lures well, as if they just realised the spawning time is around the corner and they're yet to reach their top condition. Using the recent very busy session, I explain where to look for pre-spawn pike in the lakes and rivers; how to target them; what lures to use; how to work them and which, do small or large lures work better this time of the year. My best lures for this time of the year are sliders, I use SALMO Slider 10cm mainly, other jerk baits like SALMO Fatso 10cm or SALMO Sweeper. Next small 6in paddletail and last but not least large lures like Miuras Mouse to select bigger specimens.
    So join me once again on my Savage Gear High Rider 170 Float Tub, Lure Fishing and Fly Fishing for Pike. Put these fishing tips to use if you managed to squeeze in another session before the spawn and hopefully you'll have a good day chasing pre-spawn pike.
    If you do, however, notice they are spawning (and they will be very soon), let them be for a couple of weeks and don't fish for them.
    Enjoy the Video & Tight Lines 🎣🎣

      Thanks Darren. Good fishing, they're active just before the spawning. Yes, late summer to winter it's all about the large lures, but smaller will often outfish them early spring... Had days when nothing on the large lures and 20s to small jerks!

    • @MarcinKantor
      @MarcinKantor  3 роки тому

      Cheers Damon, it's not quite like that with Bass. They don't hold in one location but move all the time. What you want is ideally shallow ground, 2-3m is what I'd opt for. Over shallow reefs, not far from beaches. You'll see abundance of good spots on Google maps, using the satelite view. The problem is not the location but putting the time in to find them when the conditions are good and at the right state of the tide. The experience is fun tho, enjoy it 👍

    Marcin, I am curious to understand why you are using a fly rod and reel to catch the Pike, rather than the usual fixed spool and lure rod? What benefits are there? I am guessing you are using some sorted weighted fly lure at the start?

      Using all sort of methods John, in this video I'm on fly but also small and large lures. It's for fun, that's all. Each pike feels twice as large on the fly rod and the take and the fight are awesome 😊 it's all getting more personal lol and a 20lb pike on the fly is a nice target.
