recaptures

[Irish Lurcher 1,013]

Fished a lake yeasterday and ended up with four pike for the day. Strange thing was that the first pike that I landed was a low double and had only one eye and a section of its tail missing, after it release I stuck on another roach and wacked it back out. I sat for no more then five minutes in my chair when I got my second run, The same pike had taken my second bait, just wondering if any of you have had recaptures in such a short space of time.

not that quick or even same day, sound like testament to your handling and release skills if the fish is straight back on the feed, id imagine they would lay up and go off the feed after capture in the past.

 

on a side note i caught the same carp four times last year out of our syndicate lake, was only caught one other time all year by one guy, must like me i guess, lol.

There's a place we go to and have caught the same fish over again not on the same day but on different occasions. Each have distinctive markings and are easily recognisable. Makes us wonder that there is not that many pike in that lake.

Fished a place called rother valley in s.yorks and caught an 11 pounder on a legerd joey mackrel and took pics and noticed it had a distinctive scar on its back went back 3 weeks later and caught the same fish 3 more times during the day at the other end of the lake and couldent believe it [bANNED TEXT] i landed it for a 3rd time even after having released it further up the bank.

Done it with carp, surface fishing. Just as the stamp of fish was getting bigger, one snapped me off and was towing the controller, tackled up again and caught the same fish the next cast.
