hopefully should have a few perch pics throughout the coming summer and a few bass to lures
how's the leg pain Adie is it still a problem or has it eased off a bit...
I myself are still getting pain in the left side, had shit loads of tests , but nothing can be found as of yet....going for M.R.I. scan to see if they can pinpoint anything going on ,

Sunday was my last trip of the season. My mate and I had 3 Jacks each so at least we didn't blank. It's not been too bad a season - I had 90
Pike biggest 17lb so for the second season I missed out on a twenty. I've fished 12 different places, 3 new ones which were all blanked on but
at least the weather was kind to us - not too cold or wet. So, here's looking forward to next season. Hope you all enjoy your summer of fishing
whichever sort you choose. Tight lines.

Thats a great season Psion, very well done. Remember 20 is only a number

that's a few good pike there
think I have had my best year as in numbers , but not a clue how many , don't really count them
think my best was 17lb 12 oz. or something near there....had a few good fish from my boat venue , but not putting pics on as of yet
as it is not being hammered as a boat venue....

Well done on the seasons totals guys, great results

Psion not only did I not sell any of my boats lol, I actually got yet another fish finder to help me stay on the water. Its a lowrance Elit ti2 with side scan and genesis mapping, the pike will have nowhere to hide next season i hope lol, Roll on October Ps I was 50 and it was a gift from the wife, maybe she wants me out of the house more

You could spent more time playing with your gadgets than fishing lol

You could be right mate lol, you know what its like trolling for 10hrs and nothings happening, its great to watch the finder and see features and shoals of fish, it keeps the mind alert

Well well well, the images were astounding, and the mapping OMG And it lasted a full two whole hours before it broke i dont think that at €525 an hour thats great value replacement on the way so fingers crossed this ones a bit more reliable.

Technology what can you say.

Short 5hr trolling lures session this morning for Post spawn Pike, 3lb 10lb 16lb 18lb and missed one. Trout tomorrow

nice one Andy , I,m out on a lake up in the hills tomorrow, hoping for post spawn pike meself

Good luck Mal, god do they fight when they are hungry

very hard today , not a cloud in the sky ,water gin-clear ,just 2 small fish of around 7 pound each , my mate blanked, I got a hook in me finger past the barb , 2nd time in 3 months now must be gettin clumsy in me old age

Oh Mal OUCH well done on getting a few, i managed a solitary 6oz trout, same weather as you had, very tough going.

New finder sorted and working great    Unreal clarity enablas looking sideways upto 100ft and pinpointing shoals of bait and predators hopefully.   then catch them        Nice 4lb 13oz trout came to see me

Nice piece of kit and it catches fish too.

seven doubles from 14lb to 18lb 4oz,  and a 20lb 5oz beauty,  long live the Savage gear lures☺    I wanted number 60 this season,  but 59 will have to do☺

Well done Andy
Still at them then lol nice to see they are still coming out

The water temps are still way way down, 11C so i am happy enough to keep catching them for a while anyway. Great to be back at them

Is that 59 doubles. I have decided to have go at Catfish fishing so will have the rods out in June.
