Pike

[Paul Richardson]

Great start Rich
Yeah I’ve had a few trips
Only jacks from the river so far
Trying a couple of local waters for better fish but 4 blanks so far and lot of issues with crayfish - but one of them that could hold a proper unknown lump so keeps the interest high
I have a ticket for the lakes that held the English record a few years ago and will settle in there as it gets a bit colder and the bait fish shoal up
Had a go last winter and plenty of doubles but nothing huge
Interesting talking to several lads who caught a 45lb pike
Good luck everyone

That’s a minter Paul. It looks brand new out the box. What a cracker
Was that on float ledger

Another nice river double - 19-8 on lamprey
Slow day with just one jack and a pair of otters catching more than me
Literally 5 mins before I was going to pack up the float was off and a great scrap

Sorry for delay in replying
More laid on - very little flow at the moment so getting away with a slider float ( 16-18’ of water) and an egg sinker on the deck
Had another new stretch yesterday and a couple with a scraper double
Believe it or not I’ve caught 3 doubles from 3 different locations on 3 trips on the same bit of lamprey
