On the river in the rain - beating a flood? I found a massive shoal of bleak - and sat on them hoping a pike was keeping her eye on dinner. Just one run - a fantastic aerial fight - this thing pulled like a pike three times it's size! Brilliant, season number three.
And James has added The Fabulous River Wye to his 40 River Double Challenge. But he did it at night while I wasn't there to take the photo, perhaps he needs a daylight one? |
Nice pike Brian.
ReplyDeleteThanks, did help I set the camera to daylight!
DeleteNice one on the Pike mate and cheers for the link mate!!! She was a mega fish.
ReplyDeleteEvery trip that results in a pike is a win! Nice one with the barbel - I’ll have to get a Wye double barbel myself at some stage… A daylight one… :-)
DeleteA daylight one would be brilliant, thats the only (very very tiny negative) of my dark double, but will treasure it nonetheless.
DeleteDefinitely a barbel to treasure, cracker!
DeleteIt was one of those fish that I thought would take a very very long time to catch and given how many years you've fished it without one I feel I lucked out enormously!
DeleteI’ll get one this season (if I can drag myself away from those pike).
