Malaren; Lovon; 7th June 2009

1lb 1oz. Rudd

1lb 1oz. Rudd

Malaren lake at east side of Lovon, the whole area is known as a superb predator fishery, with Pike, Perch and Zander fishing excellent in the area....
Popped down to this site for a morning session after identifying the area as one of Stockholms best Zander venues, though was left thouroughly frustrated by a total lack of small bait fish in the area. I failed to catch a single bait sized fish all morning and had no deadbaits with me, this meant the predators went unfished for all day. My frustration was made even worse when a boat appeared close by and the two anglers aboard caught several Pike into double figures on jerkbaits! With no natural baits caught and no artificial lures in my bag I was, by then, well pissed off!
The day wasnot a total disapointment however. One lovely Rudd of just over a pound was caught from amongst the reeds, with another good fish lost, offering some consolation on the day. Both fish took a slowly sinking float fished worm...
