What Is Your Choice Of Line That You Like To Use When Fishing Pike/Musky I Know It Also Falls Into Place As To What Gear That You Are Using As Far As The lb Test That You Use.
I Like To Use A 20lb Mono When Fishing Pike, And I Use It On A Med/Hev Rod Because Of The Sensitivity That It Has, And If I Really Feel Daring I Use A Medium Action Rod With A 10lb Mono What A Blast When You Get A Good Pike On And The Drag Is Screaming.

I use Medium action and Medium Heavy action pole with 35lbs test braided lines.
I have caught pike on 6lbs line while I fish for crappies so it was take me long battle!
