Show us what you are slinging for Pike. Or, If you're lame, show us what you think you should be slinging for pike.
I need to round out my selection.

10 4 dress them high and tight for shinners, panfish patterns and walk the dog style. Then round ties for sucker and perch style

Can someone interpret what he just said? Something about his dog walking off?

I have these tied onto size 2 and 4, the gartsides are 2/0. They are on the small side being only 4" long. I could add more stripes to them.IMG_4748.jpg

Walk the dog lures come in on top of the water but they move side to to side like and injured fish. You can do the same with a fly but move your pole to the side every time you strip the line.

High and tight
When you strip, you build speed when it stalls at the end of the strip it turns sideways to the right and to the left. That's how you walk it.

I'm watching Gunnar. I want his Vise. Seeing him do it at high speed and then trying it at home is a different story. Won't any of those posted fish squarely?

I'm Mega Learning Last year and this!

These are bulk flys. Round ,more for suspending longer before they drop.
