Flat Shiner – The flat shiner are the most life-like lures designed to help you reel in the pike. They are used quite often by many anglers with great success.

Jerkbaits – Jerkbaits are an excellent lure for reeling in the pike because these lures have that jerking motion that gets their attention. The pike sees the jerkbait and thinking that it has spotted a wounded baitfish it rushes into action. Normally, the long and thin lures ranging between six to eight inches in length will work the best and the flashiest colors like gold, silver and chartreuse are recommended for pike. These lures are meant to be fished in waters that are less than twenty feet deep and the ones with rattles work extremely well. The soft plastic jerkbaits also can produce some amazing results.

Rattle Swimmer – The rattle swimmer is another great option that will draw in the pike because it resembles a wounded baitfish or one that is swimming away from danger. This entices the pike so they will strike.

The lures listed above are recommended as being some of the most effective pike lures available. To get the best results it is recommended that you have a variety of different ones that range in sizes and shapes. As a result, you will be prepared for any type of water condition or fishing situation. This in turn will increase your odds of reeling in the pike if they tend to be in a finicky mood.
