The pike fishing is slow - did I mention that before? So thought I'd chuck out a cube of meat as well - see if I can get something to pull the line while I'm waiting! Two barbel and 2 chub, and of course no pike!
Better than a blank - far, far better! Think it might be the way forward this season (when not traveling ultra-light with the lure gear). And while I'm on about lures - a Wye sea trout with eyes bigger than her belly!

Nice traveller Brian. For years, the locals told me that the Wye didn't have a run of sea trout but, maggot feeder during winter produced fish to 3lb.
ReplyDeleteHave seen them jumping about for months - wasn’t expecting one to hit a lure that big though. I think that’s my first Wye sea trout.
DeleteNice one mate! New Year Wye Barbel, nice one indeed.
ReplyDeleteWell, if I can’t catch pike…
DeleteNo I believe the Title is now relevant 😏
DeleteTotally missed this comment sorry - plus I’m not sure I understand…
DeleteIf its not too cold for the barbel, it must be too warm for the pike!
ReplyDeletePerhaps? Perhaps I just can’t find pike this season!
