Nice! I fished it tonight before the rain. 2 jacks, 3 follows and one lost when I struck into a loose drag. The water level seemed even lower. We shall have to do another session soon, it was good fun

Hi Danny,

Thanks for the comment. I have been up tivvy on several occasions this season chucking the slug-gos. Been trying out some of the classic soft plastics up against some of the newer ones. Mark and I have been doing well above and below the surface. The new popper spro frogs (these) I got from the US have been doing well.

Mark had a 17.4 come up and hit the 6lber today, managed to land both of them. They have stared to hit the surface lures up lime kilns too, had a pike chase a frog and hit it 4 times. Pretty cool

Hi Simon

Thanks for the comment

I primarily use a Canon G9, its a very cool camera. When I have more room in my bag then I take my Nikon D90.

Wow some amazing pictures there, out of interest what camera was used to take these?

I mainly fish for carp but fish for pike in the winter.

Thanks Simon.
