Beaming with pride

A recent trip to Norfolk has brought some great success. 

Helped the nephews catch their very first pike.


This is the also the spot I caught my current PB Pike at 08/11/2011 21:38 precisely:

Caught one nice pike from the boat trip, but the bigger fish eluded me...I'll be back.

They all count!

Went back to the River Wey - caught a small perch on a spinner.

Lost another pike of about 3lbs - possibly the same one I lost before. 
(Think i'll leave this bit of the river and head to the main River Thames at Chertsey)

(An eel we caught from this spot a while back)

Travel Light - Travel Far

A short session on the River Wey. Going with light gear makes it easy to walk a long way and this a good way to tackle more water. Not too successful but was still good to catch. 

All 3 caught on a small spinner (Lost a slightly bigger pike) As these were only small I took pics on my mobile to get them back in the river quickly. For bigger fish I'll set a tripod/camera up for better pics. 

Early start - horrible weather!

Caught 5 - All similar to this one (good size bream 4-5lbs)

The wind and rain was awful - left early, but was good to catch a few!

Unexpected...

Caught off the top...took the bait whilst retrieving - thought it was a pike, turned out to be this 14.5lbs Carp.

Uncle Tony caught a cracking 18.5lbs common

Critical Acclaim...
