I have fished for pike for donkeys years. However any zander I have caught have been from the non tidal Trent and have been accidentals whilst Piking.
I have been on the zander anglers web site and read their two articles as I plan to target them on the Tidal and non tidal on club books I have.
In one article it appeared that the zander switch off after October yet I have had them with the ground frozen and thick snow. Was this unusual.
Am I right in presuming that smaller baits should be used.
Should I use twin trebles as in snap tackle or perhaps singles or even a hair as thats what I was using on a couple of occasions when I had an "accidental".
As an aside....has anyone heard of zander turning up in the Witham?
The Witham is joined to the Tidal by the lock at Torksey and the Fosdyke canal yet I fish the Witham regularly and have never caught one there or heard of one. Any ideas.
Rather a lot of questions here I know.
