Brute of a Brown Trout took offence at my Hart Absolut Minnow as I bounced it back towards me, with the flow. After a little walk around Newbury town centre together, we exchanged pleasantries and she went on her way again.

Light Lure Session in Newbury
Had a great little session on the town section of the K&A canal in Newbury on Saturday. Grabbed just over an hour while the missus was doing some shopping, and using a single lure I had a total of 10 fish for 229cm. More
My First Lure Caught Chub
It was a long time coming, but thanks to the river section of the K&A canal in Newbury, I finally caught my first lure caught Chub. What a beautiful fish! More
PB Brown Trout
Okay, it’s closed season, but this bycatch Brown Trout was very welcome after a drought (fish not rain!) More
Little Pike on LRF Gear
Braved the extreme cold today for 30 minutes while visiting Newbury. Wasn’t hopeful but I was gagging to try out some of my new lures. I fished a 3″ Reins Bubbling Shad in Marble Chart Orange, Texas with a 3.5g brass cone weight. Only managed a dozen casts before my hands froze but got a couple of follows from a decent trout and landed this little Pike. Great fun on the LRF gear. I will be back!
