Sorry about all the questions.
Looking at using this method for fishing for pike on some lakes i fish that have a lear bottom, but have a few little niggles i am not sure about.
First point, i would think i would be better off with a bottom end attached pike float rather than one that has line running through the middle, is this correct
Would i need to fish the float over depth with swan shot on trace resting on the bottom, and if so by how much?
Would i be better with a large float and put plenty of shot on the bottom ( i would think it would be better as this would give a confident indication if pike picks up back and lifts shot off bottom which should then sink float ? )
After i have cast out, would i then put rod back in rests and tighten up sinking the line up to bottom of float?
How obvious is when when you get a take, i am just a bit concerned about bite indication when fishing overdepth?
Thanks for looking.....
