[QUOTE="SLE, post: 248421, member: 3889"] I chase pike every year and have been on a few Canadian trips. My go to is a single piece 9'6" Tackle Industries Rod with a Shimano Calcutta real. That might push your $300 budget (probably closer to $400). I also have a 7'6" and an 8'6" TI rods both with C3 6500's that have proven to be pretty good and should be able to be had for $200-$250. I would go for the longest rod you can stomach. It'll make winging big pike baits all day much easier. Bait wise, heavy duty spinner baits, some super cisco's, and a bunch of Mini D and Regular D swim baits should get you a pretty good start. don't forget a couple pairs of jaw spreaders, 60-80lb power pro or the like, and I prefer good fluorocarbon leaders. Enjoy!

Just remember that when fishing canada, any of your hooks that have barbes, the barbs will need to be filed off or pinched shut. [/QUOTE]
