When setting up a leader for pike fishing, it's crucial to use a strong and abrasion-resistant leader material to withstand the pike's sharp teeth. A fluorocarbon leader of about 30-50lb test is recommended for pike fishing. To set it up, you can use a simple loop-to-loop connection to attach the leader to your mainline. Another option is to use a snap or swivel to connect the leader to your mainline, which allows for easy lure changes. Ensure the leader is around 18-24 inches long to provide enough space between the pike's teeth and your mainline. Remember to check the leader regularly for any signs of wear and tear and replace it when needed.
