I will fishing dam flask this Saturday for pike, just wondering if anyone could share some tips and the best methods to go about catching them. Any help would be much appreciated. Jamie  |

Welcome to the forum Jamie, get yourself along to a pike teaching day before trying for them on dam flask. Not for the novice in my honest opinion.

As Woody says it's not for the novice, I am glad I went with the Leeds PAC the first time I went as it is such a big sheet of water. It is a difficult water to catch from and off putting at times if the rowers are on there. Use a rotten bottom for your lead as there are a lot of rocks in places.

When I have fished down there I have always caught fairly close in, no more than 20yds. It gets deep fairly close in and has a lot of contours, plumb around looking for hollows. I saw it a couple of years ago when the water level was low and have seen them. Its a lovely place to fish, hmm might have to go myself before long. Don't forget to get your ticket before you fish as the bailiffs always come round.
