I went down to Essex with a fellow pike angling buddy (Andy) last weekend to meet up with some other guys from a pike forum Andy was on. Started fishing Saturday with a few deadbaits and the odd chuck of a lure, things where very slow we had a fish each. Sunday morning we woke up early for another 1/2 day of fishing before the long drive home, I decided to chuck a few lures that day and my friend Andy went for the lazy dead bait method ;-P .
Well I made the wrong choice with the lures and didn’t hook into anything, Andy had a great haul of 7 fish on the bank and 3 lost, total of 76lbs of pike.
Here are some photos from the trip.
One of the other lads from the forum (Colin ) got a PB of 17lbs, only his second ever pike on the bank
Another capture by Andy
All in all great day over 100lbs of pike on the bank between us.
Heh am I really the first comment to this great article?!?
