Default the weeds

I was curious which lures you use for pike in the weeds? Spinnerbaits? Which ones do you like?

spinnerbaits for getting through the thick weeds, and buzzbaits to go over the top and keep your heart in good shape when the pike come busting out into the air caught a lot of pike on both last year

Break off the tail section of a Jointed Rapala and add an aberdeen hook. Then stick on a power worm. The action is irresistable and it doesn't hang up in weeds if you rig it right.
Make sure you bend the eyelet vertical on the rapala opposite as thats what makes it so special.

top water is the most fun a person can have fishing IMO....i find Early morning and late afternoon when the wind dies down are the best for it too.

a hollow bodied minnow rigged weedless works when the wind is blowing and you cant use those top water lures.
