Default Re: Nighttime's the Pike time

We have had a few Pike here and there on bait after dark, but not so much with lures. Though my buddy had a nice one last year after dark on a Jointed Jitterbug that took 2 massive swipes at it before smashing it next to the boat. Like Jimmy said, they are definitely using all their senses and lateral line to key in on that classic "oh crap oh crap oh crap" commotion a live shiner/herring gives off. Field and Stream had a nice article on "Fooling low light Pike" a few months back.
