## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work for northern pike?**
A: Iam not a Northern Pike fisherman but dont see wire this wire would not work. I will say this my favorite wire to use in Tampa Bay is the AFW Nylon Coated wire. It comes in different weight from 10lb. up to 210lb. The AFW Tooth Proof is alittle to stiff for my choice. Hope this helps, have a great fishing day.
