I went fishing on the weekend at a small 20/30ft pond near my house its only 4/5ft deep at the most. I noticed a few pike in there whilst walking my dog one day so i took my tackle down to try catch one. I bought a few mackerel and chopped them in half, put stuck on the bottom on a ledger and one on a bob-float. Then caught live bait and stuck that out aswell. On numerous occations i saw the pike come right up to my baits but just was'n interested. I caught loads of pike up at the reservoir but this time a could actialy see the pike i was even dropping the stinking mackerel right infront of it and nothing just slowly turned away!! What can i do to improve my chances of catching one?? all i can offer is 10 pionts for the best advice. thanks
They are 100000% pike no doubt what so ever
 
live bait caught out of the spot is key, which i see you tried... perhaps LARGER bait out of the pond/reservoir might be the key... could have been bad timing too... something about the weather, or their spawning patterns... keep trying, and keep trying every bait and presentation! If you know they're there, then there's an answer to catching them, just keep trying!
 
Use mepps or a Rapala X-Rap slashbait blue and slash it around. Use a live minnow instead of one chopped up. Maybe use a dare-devil spoon?
 
try a little cleo (or any med to large spoon),rap la (crank or jerk bait) buzz bait ,spinner bait ,meps lightning all are effective pike lures
