I've been on a couple of pike fishing trips, and I've had the best luck with Mepps #5 spinners and a white bucktail, or redeye spoons. Also, caught quite a few on long stickbaits like the Rapala Original. I'd advise using the heaviest line that your reel/rod is rated for. Walleye tackle did fairly well for us, although we didn't catch many over 25". If memory serves correctly, I was using 12# line. Good luck!
