     If you don't know Jeremy Wade, well....you should from now on. Jeremy Wade is The Monstrous Fish Expert. Let's dive into his childhood.     Jeremy John Wade was born on 23 March 1956 in Suffolk, UK. At a very young age, Jeremy became interested in fishing.  ,,  The village where I grew up had a river flowing through it. So it was inevitable, I think, that I should be drawn to it in the same way that people born in sight of Alpine peaks become climbers. My first attempts to catch fish, age 7 or 8, were unsuccessful, but then I had some guidance from a school friend and after my first catch I never looked back. My parents were happy for me to stay out all day and a big part of my fishing was wanting to find new places, a process that has continued to this day."     He finished Bristol University with a degree in zoology and has worked as a secondary school biology teacher.      All of those monsters and many more were caught...

The Pike is an extremely popular fish to catch due to its powerful bite and power. They can grow huge, around 150 cm (5 feet), and weigh 30 kilos (66 pounds).     OK, now that you know how big they can grow, you must try at least once to catch it. But with what? Well, Pikes are always hungry so you can catch them with almost everything. But the most common lures used are soft baits and wobblers.     After you cast, you should retreat the line slowly without stopping. If you feel a small jerk you don't panic, but you remain calm and wait to see if the pike attacks powerfully enough.         Another important thing that you must consider is the line itself. The line has to be clear of textile material, and at the end of this line, you should add a fishing wire header.     That's all y...
