Many anglers are sure that the most catchy spoons for pike in the fall - the biggest... There is a theory "big bait = big fish". It is believed that a large pike prefers larger prey, since it spends less energy than chasing a small fry. Small pikes are also quite capable of feeding on surprisingly large prey. Often small pikes are caught with lures that are not much smaller than themselves.
Another theory about why large baits are the most successful is that the pike sees an enemy in the big fish (bait) and will attack it regardless of whether it is hungry or not. This works well with a bait that mimics another pike. However, all these theories do not mean that small pike lures “don't work”.
