I would like to wish all visitors a very merry christmas! I’ve had a few weeks off fishing but will hopefully get a trip out next week and then get regularly back on the bank in the new year in search of some predators!
May all your catches be great ones!
Thanks for stopping by!

Still doesn’t seem to have improved in the usual areas. Water still chocolate brown and unfortunately another blank was achieved. Hopefully the rain will hold off for a while now and the river can recover a little. Didn’t even see a strike or a pike this weekend. Very unusual for the areas we were trying! Oh well i suppose its time to carry on lure making until things improve.

Well fingers crossed this weekend the river won’t be flowing hard and coloured chocolate brown, as last weekend it was real hard going! Cold, wet and with the river in flood isn’t just wasn’t to be. Tried all my tricks and the Pike just didn’t want to know. Tried the slacks that had produced 4 doubles the week before but they just weren’t to be found in their favourite hide outs either. Stumped! So hopefully this weekend with less rain i should be in with a shot!
If it doesn’t look great i may have to resort to trying to catch some perch instead… hmmm! I cannot wait, each day at the moment i am constantly checking the weather to see how its changing. As for now its flippin cold but that sure as hell won’t stop me! So far for the weekend its looking like a zero degrees day time temperature for both days although i’m sure a perch in the net will warm me up!
I’ll let you know how it goes! Keep check on how i get on : www.perchforum.co.uk
