purchase something suitable. Even try a Margin Pole. You can do carp, and
tiddlers, depending on the elastic. That could be a cheaper option.

That is both stupid and dangerous.

Elastic will not pull heavy lure hooks home properly so you stay in contact
only until the pike opens its jaws at which time the rubber powers the lure
straight back at you complete with all its treble hooks. Worse: even if it
misses your contact with a heavy fish may have attracted spectators to
stand behind you.

Cheerio,
