A gloomy morning on the canal

Three hours of dropshotting and UL jigging for one lost pike 

Last perch of 2016

Another Saturday afternoon perch

A surprise cold wind (it was calm and still at home) made fishing hard yesterday but I caught a perch and lost another fish that felt good too. The water is amazingly clear now the boat traffic has virtually ceased. I swore I wouldn't get into the weights and measures game but would be interested to know what these chunky perch weight. Last Saturday's had to be two pounds; this a bit smaller. They looked amazing in the autumn sun and the old adage about big perch being the biggest of fish is so true
