 bury hill sat 4th feb well I wasnt really sure if this trip would be on or not, been pretty much stuck as home alone with kids so took off to mums on weekend for respite and beer and hopefully  Iwas hoping to get the whole day and meet rob again, but the best laid plans (and family  ) it all went too pot,But the boot was loaded just in case and after having driven180miles to my parents for 10.30am I glugged a coffee and dumped my kids on grandma(thanks Mum ) then a quick txt too rob(who unfortunately couldnt make it)managed too get too the lake for 11.30 paid the extortionate fees again and was seriously in serch of zander(or pike) read up the last few days on pike and zander posts so went for roach baits in middle runs between bank and island  well after 2 hours nothing happening there were people all arround the lake and no fish being landed anywhere most fun was watching people 3 pegs down positioning there carp rigs by bait boating them out and then asking friends in punt too place exactly where they wanted(too the inch)  and still catching nothingso anyway i changed tactics as was getting a bit parky and threw a lure on the end off one rod and staurted plugging away, 4th or 5 th cast lost waht looked(and felt) too be a double figure pike but persevered about 30mins later was really pleased too get a jack of about 4lb  continued on untill dusk but that unfortunately was it. unfortunately no zander but was really happy too have landed something when saw no one else catching then managed more then a few beers with brother in evening cheers  dave and for interest if anyone else goes to bury hill I was on peg 36 and where the willow has been cut down between 36 and 37 most off the branches are underwater about 8 feet from the bank(as i lost 1 lure in them and snagged several times) __________________ 24 beers in a case and 24 hours in a day , Game on www.exmouthsaa.co.uk I have the body of a God, Pity its Buddha :-0     |
