River with some dead bait.
However, I am going to try and catch a few silver fish and stick them on a float rig. Nothing like a fish with a hook in its back to attract a weary winter pike. My mate uses little harnesses of elastic bands around the fish so they dont die straight away. Works a treat ;)

Most I've ever caught when spinning
Has been a gull that decided to take off just as I released the cast and fly into it and so now has a new treble earring.
My mate goes to Windemere all the time though and delights in showing me pictures of 20lb+ pikes hes had out
