Can't say I am certain, but most likely. Most likely the King had cavalry and pike men were the most effective was to stop them, though they may have been called spearmen ( not too different)

What did King Charles 1 do to the Parliament?

In a nutshell - Charles I believed in the Divine Right of Kings and wanted to rule as an 'absolute monarch'. Basically this means that he believed Parliament existed to serve him. Because Parliament believed differently, that the King ruled with Parliament and was not above the laws of the land, Charles and Parliament would clash and Charles would end up dismissing Parliament and trying to rule without them. A bit difficult to do, since Parliament held the purse strings. Charles would use what ever means he could find to raise money without having to recall Parliament, means that weren't always legal or ethical. In the end, when he was finally forced to call a Parliament, they turned on him; Charles tried to evict them, they refused to leave, he called an army and the Civil War began. In the end, Charles lost his head, his family went on the run and Cromwell ruled the country as dictator for several years.

What pound test fishing line do you use for pike?

It depends where you live and how big the pike are.If your fishing where there are a lot of snags or logs you will want to use heavier a pound test because Pike like to hang out by heavy cover. I live in northern Michigan and I use 30 pound braided line. It's best to use braided line because their mouth is hard and you will get a better hook set and you will want to use a steel leader. Pike have very sharp teeth
