- Float Fishing For Pike
Des Taylor takes a look at his float leger rig that he uses for pike fishing from the bank. This rig has the benefit of incorporating a sensitive float that enables bites to be spotted, but which can be used with a drop-off indicator and bite alarm to give give bite detection at the rod end too. Ideal for pike angling on grave pits, natural lakes and canals.
Des runs through the components he uses to set up this rig and the reason he rigs it up this way. How to set the depth correctly and then goes on to put the rig through its paces.
Thanks for watching!

Bloody hell the full catalogue of tackle needed and bait
Thanks Des for the videos and the tips at setting up rigs for pike fishing. Just getting back into pike fishing after years of not fishing and the videos have shown me where I was going wrong. Cheers
Hi Des. I once saw one of your pike videos, and your tip was that you can tell the age of a lake by how big the trees are growing round the side...Talk about light bulb moment!!! I've quoted it no end of times over the years...😎😎
Good video for a beginner in the pike variety. Will try this rig out.
Thank you for the kind comment! Tight lines.
Where have you been all my life? 💖.
I had one here in hadley michigan smash my spinner bait last week and ripped 20 lb braided and my spinner off like nothing. Pretty sure i heard him laughing after. Im stepping it up a notch.
Great vid
Thanks Charlie!
Hi Des, Great video. What do you think of using a lock slide float type of setup. Saves you fiddling about with depth finding.
Hi Ian, yep good idea. The float locks can be used with this type of rig effectively, because there is enough tension on the line (because you are using a fairly big lead) to lock the float in place. Both ways work well with this rig. Best wishes, BB.
That's a lot of stuff for catching a pike on deadbaits... Even fishing with a pencil can be done much more simple (and delicate).
What size rod and stiffness do you use?
Hey , what type of bait can i put on that? If the dead or alive fish is not availiable? Are there alternatives? I very like fishing this but i never have fish bait.
Just any small fish you can catch. Here in michigan people use perch a lot. Michigan pike love perch. Or bluegill species. Thats what im going to use today, the bluegill. I may go to a creek and try and get a few small suckers. Small hook and a worm.
nice video, whats your best deadbait to use
Oily smelly things like canned mackerel... But for example in Poland U can only use deadbait fished in same water, so... everything with meat. You can use chiken's heart, liver...
@@jasparta993 iv used lamprey and mackrel dyed
do you use live bait too?
Very rarely these days.
Only need half that tackle. Float stops mean you cant fish more than the rod length, uses a stopknot and bead.
Why is that?
@@mattwilson3417 float stop will not pass thru a lot of the very small diameter tip eyes on rods, a power gum stop knot will pass thru any rod tip eye.
Have you done much river fishing for pike if so what method is your preferred choice and another great vid
Hi there, yes we fish rivers quite a bit. A simple float or leger set-up is generally best. It depends on the flow really. Where this is not too strong then a float leger works really well. We will hopefully be covering some river pike rigs soon.
@@PIKEPRO341 cannot wait to see the video not had really any Experience pike fishing the river
Good vid but im getting frustrated as you keep changing your floot fishing rigd which makes me think its all about selling pike pro products which is a shame.
Hi MrColt050, it's all about different options really. Whether you want the bait on the bottom, midwater, or able to be twitched and moved around. No one float rig can do everything, so we are trying to cover some different variations.
a baby pike ........
Unfortunately, they aren't all monsters! But from tiny acorns ....
Far too complicated. You don’t need the bite-alarms or bobbins as the float gives bite indication. You don’t need rod rests - lay the rods on the ground. Also, the float stops should have been raised another 8 inches so the pencil floats lay flat on the surface; an incredibly sensitive set up. Keep it simple and you will enjoy fishing a lot more.
