know what you mean about the bait fish, loved watching the fry creating tiny patterns on the surface as a perch attacked, even though the perch were barely bigger than them.Well I had no plans to go out this morning, I was up at six and a free day ahead, need to sort a new lawnmower out and a new laptop, fuck it, off i went too nice a day not to, went to the canal for 3 hours, just a walk and a fish, had a pike within 20 mins it thumped my lure the bait fish all jumped out of the water, it shot off to my right, I set the hook it felt like a good fish(for me), battle commenced, just as I caught a glimpse of it, it pulled the hook, must of been a good 3 or 4 lber maybe bigger ,same happened about an hour later, but I wasn't disappointed I was fucking thrilled especially when all the bait fish shot up ,if I had used a treble I'm pretty certain I would of landed both of them, but as I said to my mate I won't use trebles until I feel confident in handling the fish, I'd rather lose it than damage it, I actually felt i fished well today for a change :)
It is amazing on the big English waters like Rutland and Grafham watching the trout attack balls of fry. Both hunter and prey erupting the surface of the water. Gives the gulls a good feed too.know what you mean about the bait fish, loved watching the fry creating tiny patterns on the surface as a perch attacked, even though the perch were barely bigger than them.
Well done mate and really good you are prioritising the well being of the fish rather than making sure you land one. That is the sign of a bloody good angler.Well I had no plans to go out this morning, I was up at six and a free day ahead, need to sort a new lawnmower out and a new laptop, fuck it, off i went too nice a day not to, went to the canal for 3 hours, just a walk and a fish, had a pike within 20 mins it thumped my lure the bait fish all jumped out of the water, it shot off to my right, I set the hook it felt like a good fish(for me), battle commenced, just as I caught a glimpse of it, it pulled the hook, must of been a good 3 or 4 lber maybe bigger ,same happened about an hour later, but I wasn't disappointed I was fucking thrilled especially when all the bait fish shot up ,if I had used a treble I'm pretty certain I would of landed both of them, but as I said to my mate I won't use trebles until I feel confident in handling the fish, I'd rather lose it than damage it, I actually felt i fished well today for a change :)
