Lure bash


Recommended Posts


I was tempted but I just don’t fancy the long drive . I fished that stretch last year , we had plenty of perch , some zander and saw a few chub but interestingly none of us even had a follow off a pike . If you look on google maps at the post code and follow the coventry canal right , there’s an inflow on the opposite bank further up and nearly all the zander we had came from that swim . The perch came from all over the Oxford and coventry canals

Thats the swim if you do have a go , you can’t miss it . I forgot to switch the camera on so it’s the only one we got on camera . The lure is a zman slim swim in pearl pattern with a 1/8th tt jig head on a 0.9-7 gram rod . The lad to my right is using the same end gear but a 3-12 gram rod and the lad on the left was using a 5-20 gram rod with the same lure . We are talking to a local on the vid who told us he’d only ever seen 1 zander caught on that stretch . We had 4 while we were talking to him . We met him again later on and gave him a few lures when he was looking at my lures and he opened up about what he does catch and where from where and it turns out that that swim is a known hotspot, there’s a boatyard further up that he said was a good spot aswell . I had a fair few hits off perch under the bridge at the meeting point aswell
