Hi
I'm trying to get together the kit needed to go and successfully land pike. Deadbaiting)
So far I reckon I need:
Large landing net(can some recommend one thats not £50? nearer £20 would be nice, already have handle)
Unhooking mat(Greys medium prob as it will attach to my ruck)
large long nose pliers (again, recce welcome)
side cutters(again, recce welcome)
small first aid kit
hand sanitizer stuff
bite alarm(have a fox micron M but need one more of some sort)
Other?
End Tackle:
Uptraces
End traces/snap tackle(make my own or buy in? which ones?)
Weights (sizes? 2oz, 3oz?)
Floats, zepplers/inline sliders/pencils
Other?
Have got 2 carp rods I can use and have some freshly bought 14lb mono to spool up on free spool type reels..
Planning on float legering stillwaters and river. Running float leger on still, paternoster on river.
Have fished for pike before (years ago) and had several to 19lb but am returning and want to ensure I have correct kit.
Thanks for any help
