Teacha Worms! They make just about every soft plastic you can think of in many sizes, color, scents and flakes.
I like the flukes and the Brush Hawgs.

I once used a pike imitation about six inched long and had a pike that had to be forty pounds follow it in but when he saw me he was gone covered in cuts and could see many scars

Put on any type of " paddle " tail minnow on a jig and strap yourself into a chair and hold on for the ride.

A simple 4in grub in any color on a 1/2 oz jig works great for pike some days.

I like using a 2 oz Jig head , with a 10 to 12 inch swim bait , Or The bango minnow , I bought up a few kits back in the day and loved fishing that thing for pike . Sadly a couple years ago my last banjo minnow died .
But nothing beats top water gear for Big pike .
