Cobra 0 Posted May 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Thanks for the advice fellas i've just had two great days on lake windermere mostly trolling lures. I tryed a large selection of lures in different sizes but by far the best were the rapalas. The most productive areas were at the north end of the lake using jointed rapalas in size J11 in ether fire tiger or silver and black. The best day was friday when i caught 8 pike up to 14.5 lbs /1 trout at 3 lbs and a perch at about a pound. Its a great place to fish and i can't wait to go back. ps Plenty of pubs and bars too.

Cobra 0 Posted May 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 I wasn't preaching i dont think you can beat live baiting. Pike just can't resist em. Quote Link to post
"Earth!" 503 Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 I wasn't preaching i dont think you can beat live baiting. Pike just can't resist em. Yes sunrise and sunset are EXCELLANT alot of waters have banned livebaiting although ive accidently done it a couple of times with fish appearing from the pond in my garden 3 miles away on my snap tackle Quote Link to post
