The BIGGEST shiners you can get, spoons and rapalas have worked best for me. I've fished Pompton Lake a ton for Pike and have only hooked up with a few. The state record Pike did come out of there though...

Welcome aboard and definetly dont be shy about posting reports! Like you said, the more activity, the better

I haven't been able to get them that big around here, usually 4-5" are the biggest Meltzer's and Totowa bait and tackle carry.

A Pike a landed last week had something at least 10" half digested hanging out of its throat though, so I'm sure something that big would work.

My goodness well some spotty weather had my hopes up, but during the afternoon which was dedicated to goldfishn had no bites. But who cares I'm out for the pike so after a break I was just out from 4-6 and no pike but one bigass crappie got my minnow. Franks b&t had some nice big shiners so I'm just gunna go ahead and blame that section of the river. I had 4 rods out for both sessions and no bites. Gunna hit the Passaic tomorrow for another crack at the pike. Any time of day tips for pike? Still got some leftover minnows so that'll be my ammo
