New year. New venues. New pike? First up was an abandoned match pond - heard rumours of pike (there's always rumours), and seen photos of a couple of nice zander, so I spent an afternoon working my way around with a deadbait rod & a little lure outfit.
A few bumps and takes around the dilapidated fishing platforms (you wouldn't want to step on these), and three jacks found the net. Don't know if it holds a double - but definitely worth further exploration. Might even find a zed?! Happy new year.
Can't beat a bit of prospecting. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteAlways exciting fishing somewhere new, especially a neglected venue - who knows what’s lurking about in there?
DeleteSounds interesting, good luck.
ReplyDeleteCheers. Interesting to see what I find - pike, perch, zander - other?
DeleteGet a zed.
ReplyDeleteOK, I’ll try…
DeleteThere might be that there gold in them hills! - Happy prospecting
ReplyDeleteI could catch jack pike all day long - anything else is an additional bonus!
