In case you didn’t know hand feeding pike can be dangerous! Dick Derricks from the Netherlands sent us some photos and video of him hand feeding pike, he gets out of most encounters unscathed, most of them, but not this one.
Just a few more days until pike season starts in much of Ontario. I’m really looking forward to seeing how Rockstar Lures do this spring, there are at least a dozen of my big ole spinnerbaits in Ontario right now (and a few more shipping soon) primed and ready to catch some pike this weekend. One tip to all you fishermen this weekend, don’t hand feed the pike!
How do you catch fish in water over ten meters deep using a rod that does not have a reel, or even guides for your line? Simple: fashion the rod from bamboo, hollow out the centre and run the line through the middle and out the very end of the rod. Wrap your spare line around a couple of pegs at the other end, and you are ready to indulge in the traditional Japanese fishing technique known as tebane.
