Finnaly out from the kitchen and manage to take a wee trip to pike land . Was absolutly worth it . I had a new rod for my birthday, its a 7ft long Abu Garcia Veritas 10~25g black and white spinning rod . W where in Dublin on the Swords Angling Show and stay up in the town for a weekend. Take a wee walk in the center and find a pretty oldschool looking tackle shop, i saw this rod there and was love at first sight. My other half get it for me for birthday present with a matching coloured Penzon Mitchel reel, of course i was extremly exithed to try it Finally arrived to the lake, i didnt even wait for a usuall coffe etc after trravel , i just head down to wet my line. the rod and reel combination was awsome and with braid i cast like a rocket, but after a few hours still just a few bites and nothing. decided to take an adventure arround the lake , wasnt much space to cast it was trees everywhere. At the very corner was look deadly and full of lilypads witch means only weedless gear what we can talk abaut, so like a rambo get myself there, really hard ground to make a cast but when its happened in right place right time i can cast just front of the lillypads with a savage gear roach imitation 4play weeedless set up. i was knew i havent got many chance because im too noisy but reeld in very slowly and tried to covered from surface to the deepness the distance. Its worked, beautiful 9lber what i hooked first. Super fight and really aggressive, lots headshakes and jumps but this lady been landed. Quick trophy photo and relase safely for another fight.
Stay on the spot and expected to be quiet for a few minutes, nothing for a same lure so i decided to change on for an orange FishArrow soft plastic. This lure is made to drives salt water predators crazy but im such an open minded angler so give a go for a deadly moves, yess i had a bit smaller brother from above. Also had bites on the blue colour as well, have to say its a brilliant
ant lure for pike.
My third fish was very close to 10lb. Simply cant resist for a 90mm Fiish Black Minnows. The new shallow head dont let it to dive straight too deep, but still kept the deadly move and flash from the belly, ohh and the unresistable paddle tail effect.Swims awsomely tough the lillypads,i love weedless hooks.End of the trip the "fish of the day" was mine so have to say Gina won the bottle again!
