Question Can anyone tell me how to un-hook a pike 15lb+?

I have unhooked a pike before and that was 12lb but it was only just hooked ,what do i do if deeper and a bigger pike.

The technique is the same regardless of size, unless its a 20lb monster you need to straddle over, to pin it down. I find you have a bit more room to manoeuvre on the larger fish, if anything. If a fish is hooked fairly deeply you may need to access the hooks from under the Gill cover between the rakers, delicately, rather than from the mouth. If you use good detection & set the hooks promptly, deep hooking is unlikely to happen. The PAC website has a good unhooking guide, or a DVD or experienced Piker with you.

Enjoy your Piking mate

Her in hte UK it can be very productive as Pike are much more confident predators at night so really hit any dead bait you put in at times they really do take ou by surprise and run like a BIG wild carp and when they tail walk across teh river or lake in the half light it really is scary
