A Couple of Nice Pike and 1.5 Points

I was sitting in work today thinking how much i wanted to be away fishing! So it was decided that i would get a quick dinner then head to the lake for a few hours.

My main mission was to catch a perch for the hunt, which i achieved with my first fish. It couldn't resist a nice dendrobaena worm.

1.5 Points please!

Also caught a few small roach.

Any pike i caught were just a bonus, i had one rod on the alarms while i fished away for silvers. Beep Beep Beeeep and away a pike went! Wasnt a spectacular fight but he gave me a good going.

Hit the net at a reasonable 8lb.

Excuse the photo! Its the first bit of sun in about a month

and i need to get rid of my farmer's tan(not sure if that is a Northern Irish term or not

)!

The wind was doing my head in so away with the float fishing for the perch and i just sat back and relaxed. It was about 20 minutes after i stopped float fishing that the surface was near like a mirror, bloody typical!

So i took advantage of this and changed the ledgered smelt into a float fished smelt and it paid dividends with a pike smack on 10lbs on the first cast.

I lost another one and that was the end of the action. A nice nights fishing and best of all another 1.5 points

Cheers,

Justin
