There is a lot to look forward to in October; the film Joker finally hits the cinema, El Camino is getting aired on Netflix and Rick & Morty is back after what seems like an eternity. Anything else? Oh yeah, pike!
To the pike ponds - and I’d like to say between storms - but I got soaked! But it was worth it; my season opener was a beautiful dark double at 12lb 6oz followed by a jack on the next cast.
Both fell to a Storm Curl Tail - my go to lure in these conditions. I think I could have had more but the storm thickened - then thunder and lightning - and even I draw the line at fishing in lightning..!
A good start and a sensible approach to the weather conditions. Nice to know that there's something that will stop you fishing :o)
ReplyDeleteCan’t argue with a double to open the season. You can fish through any other conditions (if you’re daft enough like me) but lightning stops the show!
