Happening with increased frequency lately. I wonder if smaller fish become more predatory during the peak spawning periods? Anyway, this one was a clonker of a Ruffe!

Bar Jack From Kayak
Proving to your loved ones that you can think about stuff, other than fishing is all well and good, but there are limits.
Night Game in Tobago
Dodged a bullet with the UK weather last week and took a holiday with the missus to the Caribbean Island of Tobago. Nice.
40cm Perch Today
Lovely 40cm Perch from a section of the Kennet & Avon Canal that I don’t normally fish. Well chuffed!
35mm lure ;0)
4 Species at Hungerford Town
Weird couple of hours down Hungerford Town today. Managed four species on unscented plastics including two Bream, a Ruffe and a Gudgeon, which is only my second ever.
LRF West of Nantes
Many thanks to Ward for pointing us in the right direction and urging us to continue further west than we fished last year.
Crimbo Lure Fishing
Crimbo fishing with my mates. Top day gents.
Perching with George Cunningham (HTO)
Without doubt, George Cunningham has had a huge influence on the state of light lure fishing here in the UK. George’s homegrown HTO brand has made it possible for thousands of people to try out LRF and ultralight fishing, without breaking the bank, discovering the addictive fun of these methods. By all accounts, the HTO Rockfish UL remains one of the best selling spinning rods of all time. So, when my threat of taking George Perch fishing on the Kennet & Avon finally looked like a goer last week, we were both really looking forward to it.
