I've never gone fishing for pike before but i will be going in a couple of weeks with a friend of mine its in new hampshire if that matters, any help with what works for you guys or whatever would be appreciated. thanks.

Pike will readily hit any lure in your tackle box, from bottom crawlers to topwaters and everything in-between. I'd give a very small edge to spinnerbaits in shallower water and a grub on a jighead for deeper water.

Pike easily cut line with their teeth, so you will have to decide whether to use a metal leader or not, considering loss of lure and considering pike swimming around with a mouthful of crankbait.

big inline bucktail spinners always worked the best for me...and dead smelt on a big hook under a bobber.....small pike will eat big lures too....i once caught a little baby pike that was shorter than my rapala original floater....steel leader is a must...my best fish were caught in the middle of the day on bright, hot sunny days

A steel leader is a must. Spoons, spinner baits and rattle traps in flashy colors like chartuese are deadly pike lures. Floating rapalas and husky jerks in firetiger are awsone. Mepps inline spinners in #3 & #4 in firetiger color are also great lures(with the hair).

thanks for all the tips guys. will be sure to let u all no how i do

Boondocks hit the nail on the head. Anything flashy, be it spoons, spinnerbaits, or crankbaits. Firetiger or clown work well for me.
