I used to get dropped off at the local canal during winter and walk and cast a lure/spinner for a few miles then the Mrs would be me up from pub a few villages down happy days. I never caught any biguns that way, which was probably down to bad technic but stayed warm in comparison to sitting behind static macrell tails 2 Quote Link to post

si brown 8,486 Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 you've made a mint job of them kanny well impressed. I fished solely for pike for donkeys years all over England the only method I couldn't get to grips with was using glides and jerks, I had 80lbd spider wire on me multiplier so I didn't lose me lures, best I ever caught on them was a bloody great gatepost out of Windermere been doing up loads of old airguns during this lockdown and one of the blokes has sorted my son out with two micro lure setups.. one extrema to the other. you'll be buzzing ya tits off when you land a pb on one of your own 1 Quote Link to post

I've a few pike hot spots on the trent so i will probably give those a bash first and hope they have better action than a gate post lol ....and yeah need to get some heavier line/braid sorted I'm only running 12lb mono at the moment. my aim is to have a good selection of my own stuff ready for October 2 Quote Link to post
