Pike eat then I have a frog and a mouse lure that go over the surface. And one of the likes I fish with Wells cats up to 50 lb has no baby ducks on it in the summer. There was a story from the owner that a woman used to come down to the lake and feed the duck every day in the same spot she phoned him up in tears saying something huge came out of the deep and ate a duck as she was feeding it.

haha thats messed up , the lady prob s herself.

Good question for me at extream range carp fishing 180 yards + and my lure fishing I use braid (Berkley Whiplash Pro) I recommend braid over every other line fore lure fishing as no stretch you feal every nock and when you strike its instant. For all my other fishing I use Krystonite Super Mono
Premium Grade Super Copolymer with Flurocarbon Coating.
High performance hybrid copolymer monofilament with added flurocarbon coating. Low diameter combined with extra suppleness gurantees longer smoother cast.
Advances fromulation gives high knot strength, low visibility and excellent abrasion resistance. Strength to diameter ratio far superior to many other lines on sale.

If you fish with Rapala X-raps you may improve your chances of landing bigger fish by replacing its hooks with stronger/better hooks. I replace them with Eagle Claw #4 trebles in red. Its original hooks tends to bend and give way to big fish.

A catch on a modified x-rap tied to a light ugly stik with 15# mono.
