SET&#8230;. but nothing happend, the pike was not hooked! My hands were shaking&#8230; the pike turned around, and took position below some overhanging gras. How could that be? I was shocked!<\/p>\n<p>My only hope was, that the pike had not felt the hook yet and might come again for the fly&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>&#8230;in such situations, usually the fish are either OFFENDED and do no longer react to anything, or they are ENRAGED and want to eat the streamer even more!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I cast towards the pike again, stripped slowly away from it, and after a short while it came again rushing out of the undergrowth, and soaked in the streamer from behind&#8230; SET&#8230; and again no hookset!

The hooks were sharp and the leader strong, so I had enough confidence to apply some pressure and keep the pike away from the roots of trees and heaps of driftwood. Used to the strong currents of the river the pike fought like a bulldozer, but in the end it landed in my net and the fight was over! What a nice fish!
