The northern pike is a large muscular fish with razor sharp teeth that strikes baits aggressively. It's been said that northern pike will attack any kind of lure, but some work better than others, so carefully select your northern pike lures before heading out to pike territory.
Metal spoons are the most popular northern pike lure of all time. Spoons come in many different shapes and sizes, with one angler saying the basic northern pike spoon runs between four and six inches and one to one a half ounces, which allows for easy casting and quick action on the retrieve.
Spinnerbaits with a longer and thicker skirt, bigger blades and an oversized hook can also work well as a northern pike lure.
Soft plastic jerkbaits , which are
popular for bass, also work well
as northern pike lures.

Soft plastic jerkbaits , which are popular for bass, also work well as northern pike lures. They succeed because they sink slowly through the water, producing a triggering effect pike can't pass up.
The most popular soft plastic jerkbait is a worm, which dangles in the water, attracting northern pike. www.scientificfishing.com, the world leader in scientifically designed lures, has created a worm lure that moves naturally in the water like a live worm. It's based on aeronautical flutter technology that causes the worm to constantly curl in the water.
The Walking Worm beat a crankbait and another plastic worm in a test because of its natural movement. The crankbait moved but wasn't a worm, the northern pike's favorite food, and the plastic worm stopped moving when it hit the bottom, so the pike thought it was dead.
The Walking Worm comes in a variety of enticing colors, from chartreuse to green pumpkin seed and pearl white. Choose the best color for the water conditions and fire away - the northern pike will be biting.
