If you don't like any of the generic ones, you can send a picture you fancy to Elton and he will downsize it, add it to the avatars, and after 15 posts, you can use it.

But atleast pike don't just take plummets without there being a bait hooked onto the tackle somewhere near!

 

And strangely enough pike rarely fall for a boilie!!

Pike will take anything anyone cares to throw at the dopey gits. If I had a quid for every one of the skulking numbskulls that has struck at my marker float, with not a shred of bait anywhere near it, I'd be less than ten grand behind Peter 'I only use traditional electronic fish finders, me' Waller.

 

As for pike 'rarely falling for a boilie', oh dear Pete, oh very, very dear, mate. I've had at least 20 pike on boilies over the years, and hundreds of takes on boilies occur every year, with many of them on static baits. Ask Elton how often pike take boilies.

 

Sorry, mush, pike is like well-fik, innit. Mind you, some anglers still require all manner of hi-tech, electronic assistance to catch them. Now THAT certainly does prove something.

Like the rest of here, Wordbender, I'd been waiting patiently for five years for you to pick Peter up on that point

 

It's not unusual at a place I go to to get three or more on boilies in a session, especially if you've prebaited the area with pellets first. Ask Si

Look, I'm a very busy man, with a desk diary and a BlackBerry and everyfin! It's alright for the Wallers and Newts of this world, who spend their time toodling about in boats bristling with more detection technology than Area 51, when I'm too busy being all vital and important and stuff. Oh yes, while they're out on the water lacing daisies into each others' hair, I'm having crucial meetings and using the latest buzz-words and prodding ever more importantly at my laptop with my executive finger and all that.

 

So, to conclude, I didn't notice the bleddy date, did I?

Quite agree I once very nearly landed a low double pike which attacked my baitdropper and wouldn't let go - would have landed it if I'd had my net set up! And a few years ago my mate Glenn came barbelling with me and caught his PB pike of 16lb 4oz on a ledgered (and static!) pellet.
