A bit more advice on pike lure please

I can not wait to use the old ondex now, I have been looking at all night
and remembering. I stopped when I remembered it was damn near 40 years ago
though.VBG

Can not wait till Sunday now when I take my son pike fishing.

In a phrase Gandalf old man,
"your good to go".

Yoiu dont need to spend on these new fangled contraptions, the oldies are
most often the best, i still have my old spoon and it catches more than
the lads with hundreds of new "failsafe" lures

Oh well I did take a look into the murky world of lures and have come to
the conclusion that there are loads of very odd items out there.

Gone are the days when I single jointed plug was as complicated as they
got and we have some real wire contraptions that I had only seen used by
big guys in ten gallon hats chewing gum so please tell me what works and
what is out there to catch the angler. The young man offered me one that
I would not even use off of Key West let alone a British lake, it was
that big

The only new type I saw that made sense was the soft plastic type and I
bough a chubby shad ( I did mishear him and thought he was offering a fat
prostitute at first ). It looks like a little pike in the main so as my
one and only plug is like a pike and has caught I thought it a good idea.
I also bought an Ondex spinner, a normal looking spinner that is the same
as the one I caught my very first pike on all those years ago, which I
have confidence in.

So what is the best types of lures for an old fashioned simpleton like me
who wants some moderate fun without being stupid.
