Pontsticill Pike

Phil's was about 7lb and was caught on a half mackerel.
Another Smelt for me, fish was around 4lb.
We used predator plus on both baits and the runs came about 20 minutes after a recast.

Dave's fish wasn't quite as big as his last Pontsticill Pike.

Cheddar Doubles

Two runs at the same time a few seconds after casting out!
Both came out on Smelt with Predator Plus oil.

Mine was 13lb and Phil's was 17lb.

8.30 Jack for Dave at Combwich

Penzoy Jack

This jack took a roach a few seconds after it was cast

Four Jacks and a greedy Perch

This Penzoy Jack took a Rudd at about 7.00 am.
Another Pike of about the same size (5lbs) was caught just before it and 2 smaller Pike were caught later at about 8.00 am.




This 1-2 lbs Perch took a Rudd that was about half its size just after the 3rd Pike of the day. Runs came surprisingly quick today with two fish taking the Rudd seconds after it had been cast.


This part of the Drain looks Pikey, looks like Greylake car park is closest.

Bradney Jack

After walking 500 miles from Parchey car park Phil caught this Jack using a Big 'S' in the margins at 11am. I lost a fish on the same section just before :-(

Phil caught another margin patrolling Pike of about 5 lbs on gold corner at 12.30. The second fish, caught just round the corner on the Huntspill straight, was unfortunately camera shy.

Double caught on a smelt at Pontsticill Reservoir

Fish was caught at about 11am after we were advised to move to a less pressured swim. Dave casted straight out in front from the middle of the swim.

Llangorse lake next time? :-)
