Can you give me some patterns for easy guide-type flies that will catch pike, please? I'm new to the pike world and need some easy ones to get me started.
Thanks

You can upsize your favorite bass flies.
Deceivers, big poppers, bunny leeches...even giant Woolly Buggers are fairly easy and would get you started.

I've had good luck with a 2/0 red and white double bunny. in addition to pike I've caught some nice bass with it.Clousers are another good pike fly.
I've had great success with big Clousers I tie using green, chartreuse, and orange bucktail (perch colors) as well as big Pistol Petes with oversize propeller blades in the same colors.
