Hi all
Just had a very frustrating a day yesterday on a local river.. basically I was using delkims and my mate was using basically using a billy backbiter, I'm not experienced river wise but the pike where pulling the line but weren't Triggering on my delkims I could see the rod moving but no indication even on my mates alarm the were pulling and letting go and pulling for until finally they trigger the alarm and this happened 4 time son different sections each time we striked into the fish we'd have them on but lose them in a minute or two..
Also all the deadbaits were on the bottom we didn't have any popers, it may sound like I'm crazy but the the pike were pulling the like and you could see the end of your rod bending and then going back normal and bending until finally the pike takes lines very strange?
Any ideas never happened to me before..
