Happy New Year

Would have been nice to start the year with a pike, but I didn’t have time. Instead I shot down the river to try and bag a January barbel.


I found a few but most didn’t want a bait - but a bit of perseverance paid off - landing four to 8lb 2oz - great start to the year!


For the records: 8lb 2oz, 7lb 7oz, 5½lb & 4lb (143)
