Predator fishing is hugely popular, with the UK season running from October through to March. Some anglers will pike fish in the summer months, but it is commonly accepted that if the water is over 21 degrees, you should not be targeting pike because they are very sensitive to water temperature changes. Predator anglers need a powerful fishing rod to take on the big-toothed predator and get it into your landing net. We stock a wide selection of predator rods, predator reels and predator line which are all specifically designed to take on the challenge of these formidable fish. Bait is essential to catching pike and the best options are lures of dead bait. Lure fishing keeps you mobile along the bank, whereas dead bait tends to mean you’ll sit beside your alarms for a session. Large specimen nets can be used for predator fishing, but also consider a rubberised landing net. Create your perfect predator set up with the great range of predator fishing gear available from well-known brands including Shimano, Prologic, Westlake and Daiwa.
