Your friend has the only other pike I know of caught out here in the 14lb. range. I was starting to think mine was a fluke or a mutant. I used whole chubs (5ish inch) on steel leaders I made with a 1/0 salmon in front of a 2/0 treble. When Smiths would run out of chubs I would use red shiners. I noticed I caught more cats, and about the same number of pike using them.
