10lb Pike caught on a Jose Mourinho deadbait at Cheddar Reservoir

Not on the drop this time like the last one was at cheddar. Run occured about 20 minutes after casting out tight to the left of the tower at about 10.30. Weather was quite choppy so we called it a day at 11am. A quick scout round the other side showed the weather to be more favourable there but we'd given up by then.

Dog walkers reported some fish coming out of the other side earlier that morning, but no anglers were there so they must have called it a day as well :-)
