My new PB Roach; Alan Dalton; Tyresö; 24th April 2015


A nice Roach weighing in at 1lb 3oz was my biggest Roach to date and a nice surprise. Caught on legered redworm/sweetcorn cocktail, fixed paternoster.


Making a run for it, cleanly caught in the end....


Around 15 Roach taken of good stamp, all between 12oz and 1lb 3oz. Most were fat with spawn, possibly larger female fish. Bites came mostly in the evening...

A new PB Pike for Ed Bowler

What a stunning fish this is. A very happy Ed Bowler here with his recent 19lb. Pike taken early season on a CDC Pig Shad. Ed has had a lot of fish in the 6.7kilo bracket and it's only a matter of time before he cracks on a tops this monster. A really stunning fish this, pristine and has probably never seen a hook before...

Big Perch day for Jesper

What can you say about this lunatic? All being said he's gotten into some nice Perch of late and this one was the best of a 50 fish haul taken on McRubber shads, a cracking Perch of 2lb 10oz. On the day he had four fish over the 1 kilo mark. I suspect a 3lb. fish is coming soon...

Avesta; Fishing Trip; April 2015


A 9lb. Pike for Andy Shaw taken on a jerkbait...


Dawn at Avesta..


The bhoys...


Micropike taken on a Busterjerk!


And another micro...

First bit of fishing of the year, a two day trip to Avesta which was tough going fish wise. We went for Pike and arrived to find cold weather, meaning fish were hard to come by. a few very small Pike were taken on the first day, though Phil O keffe lost a better fish close to 10lb early in the morning. Second day we went deeper to find a few fish on large rubber shads, with Andy shaw taking a fish of 9lb. Later the evening Craig deLeon was unlucky to have a very big pike come off after his line sheared under his boat, losing a fish over a metre long, a possibly very big fish...
A great weekend nonetheless and a good start to the season...
