Rafa and a superb 0.72kilo(1lb. 11oz.) Perch. Big Perch do that to some people...
A lovely 0.50kilo(1lb. 1oz.) Perch for Karl saw him off the mark for the year on the table...
Fishing into a Waxholm sunset....A great days fishing for Perch today at Waxholm, which always produces the goods at this time of the year. A lot of fish were taken during the course of the day, many of them reasonably sized Perch, with stacks of smaller fish and on a few occasions Pike were launcing themselves at our hooked fish as we drew them from the water. Myself, Linda, Karl, Rafal and Phil O Keefe all fished today and everyone caught good numbers of fish around the 3/4lb. Mark, as well as a few nice Roach and a couple of Bream. Ledgered worm was, as usual here, the killing method. Better fish came to Phil, with fish of 0.47(1lb.) and 0.50kilo(1lb. 1oz.), while Karl also chipped in with a fish of 0.50kilo(1lb.). Rafal topped the pound mark early, with the first really good Perch of the day, yet still managed to save the best for last, with a cracking Perch of 0.78kilo(1lb. 11oz.) late into the evening. This venue is capable of producing very large Perch indeed, well above 2lb. certainly, with perhaps a 3lb. fish a real possibility here as the fish gather to feed on the huge shoals of Bleak that gathere here at this time of the year. The fishing here doesn't last longer than threeor four weeks before the baitfish diperse to deeper water and the Perch follow. Always nice when the fishing is truly excellent and this was one of those days
