In search of large Pike

[Irish Lurcher 1,013]

I is thinking of paying a visit to the Norfolk Boards later this year, I am now hearing that the larger pike that once were plentyful are now like rocking horse dung.

 

Can any of you UK based guys throw some light on this subject??

 

Am I flogging a dead horse?

I live a pretty close to the Broads and there is some lumps in there! I havn't fished seriousley for years but I know alot of lads in the area who do mainly for Zander and Pike, some of the main rivers they hit is the Middle level, Releif Channel and the Wizzy, Welland and Nene.

 

I stuck some pic's up a few years back of one lad down here who is pretty commited to Zander fishing, he's had them out of the middle level upto 19lb and some pretty big Pike near on the 30lb mark from some of the other waters.

 

I would say go for it mate! if you get fed up around the broads these other rivers are only a stones throw away to try, the best thing about the Broads is you can Hire a boat out for a week and have some sport plus hit all the pubs along the way .

 

Cheers
