dead/live bait

[Peter-Pike]

Does anyone know a good place where i could get a dead/live bait rod which isnt to expensive?
Also do i need a bobble float and trace?
Thirdly do i need a big hook and to i put it into the top of the fish.

Cheers

NOt sure but you could try ebay and dont forget argus does some cheap kit

Also do i need a bobble float and trace?

You ALWAYS need to use a wire trace when pike fishing as there teeth will go throw mono like butter. As for bubble float it depends on if your going to float fish or not

Thirdly do i need a big hook and to i put it into the top of the fish

You need trebles size 6 on a wire trace that you can buy from a tackle shop ready made for about £2.50 . Us this link for ideas on mounting fish >> Pike Fishing Rigs
