Can pike see a lure under the ice?
Yes — clear ice with modest snow cover passes plenty of light, and pike stay visual hunters all winter, which is why they remain one of the best ice-fishing targets. Heavy snow load is the real dimmer switch: it can cut under-ice light dramatically, shifting the advantage to larger profiles, flash, and slower presentations the fish can track. Under early clear ice over a weed flat, pike routinely rise several meters to hit a jigged spoon or a tip-up bait they spotted from a distance.
