when i take a photo i always think it looks smaller than the real weight but i am crap at taking photos

to me this photo doesnt show the size properly but it did weigh bang on 20lb and witnessed by 2 other anglers

went out today with piketastic to a local venue to me, and between use we had 7 or 8 fish, craig with the lions share as i only had 2 fish, a small jack and this beauty 18lb 6oz

good fish pal

Nice fish, well done mate. I had a big fat blank yesterday thanks to Wednesday's floods. Had I not been taken a newbie I would of stayed in bed. At least he learnt a few things though, especially what conditions usually warrant a blank  

Had 3 fish yesterday between 12lb on the nose and 15lb10oz , not massive fish but they are from a commercial pasty pond that I suspected may have a few in due to the floods in 2007 . I'll definitely be having a few more trips to see what else turns up

PB drain caught fish on a hard morning, took over a mile to find them. 2 takes on trout, 2 fish..

13.7lb PB (below) and an 11.2lb the levels were the lowest ive seen..

Are these what you got to qualify with for the AT nationals ??

yes mate same stretch to stubbo had some nice roach dropped of today to from same stretch also,ive never been one for live baiting until I tried it a month or two back and had some good results.
got a fish tank in the shed with a pump just like the a tank you would use in doors which ive put the gudgeon and roach in
iam out 1st thing cant wait
glad to have some time off work not been fishing for a few weeks now

drew a blank on the canal but out again tmoz in 2 minds to try the canal again or my local still water..the canal puts me of with it only being acouple of feet deep
its been cold hear for a few nights now and my thinking is try somewear with a bit of depth to the water

thought I was mad venturing out this morning,   
glad I did

20lb 14oz
My first river 20.       
Shame my trusty photogropher wasnt with me today, they never look as good on a mat.

Well done mate that's a nice river pike and on a day like today    did you catch it in the rain ??

I've been out myself today and managed to catch one in the rain but not as big as yours this one was about 7lb ish    

better than being nearly attacked by a bull... rods into mid air twice by swans and then swans nearly getting in a tangled mess as well AND BLANKING

safe to say, NO ONE was harmed in the process of my sunday piking
