perch
LRF tackle and techniques cross over perfectly for freshwater species. None more so than the beautiful Perch. Over the past few years, more and more freshwater anglers have tried – and enjoyed – an ultralight approach to their lure fishing for Perch, many adopting LRF tackle and techniques. Subsequently, Dropshot and Micro Jigging have become hugely popular for Perch. Perch offer the LRF angler a fantastic target during the colder months of the year, when our coastline is at its quietest.
Perching with George Cunningham
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. More

Great day on the K&A with Chris today. Lots of variation in water clarity between stretches. We capitalised in the clearer water using a variety of lures. More

Most Popular UK Predator?
I was bored at work yesterday afternoon and decided to see if I could answer the question, “which is the most popular UK predator?” There’s no denying that interest in predator fishing, especially lure fishing is exploding in the UK right now, but which predators really interest anglers the most?

Back on the K&A
With the competition scene pretty much over for the year, it was really nice to get back on my local stretch of the Kennet and Avon canal to mess around with some new lures, relax and have some fun. More
