In countries like Ireland, England but also the Netherlands it is pretty popular.
On lakes people usually go for a #9 weight rod + line. The tippet to use is 0X or even thicker depending on the size of the expected predator and a wired leader hooks up the streamer.
Streamers are tied on various hook sizes but I prefer a 6/0 streamer like the ones below.
I had the pleasure to fish in Longford Ireland for pike with Glenn Drennan, and Terry Jackson and you can see a shot below !
Give it a try ! It's great fun
