I'm really new to spearfishing and I've been out only a couple of times. This weekend I spent 4 to 5 hours looking for a pike with no luck. There were a bunch of nice size bass but I was told they have worms at this time of year. There were also lots of perch but only a few good sized ones, not enough for a decent meal. I know there are pikes in that lake since I saw one a couple of years back and line fishermen catch them regularly. I figure I wasn't looking at the right place or my stalking skills just plain suck.
I did not make many dives past 10m since I didn't have my wetsuit and it was pretty cold past the thermocline. Most of the day was spent snorkeling. The visibility was not that great, about 3m. Given the bad visibility I moved very slowly in the water to avoid scaring the fish away.
At what depth and where (places with lots of weeds?) do you usually find pikes?
Any help would be appreciated.
