zanderI just have to tell you that after 4 years of trying I have just caught my first ZANDER.

It can be difficult when you live in the North-West as we don’t have any around here. Over the last four years I have fished the river Nene, Middle Level, Relief Channel and the Cut-Off Channel and never had one but, today I went to the Coventry Canal and caught one! OK it’s only 1lb 8oz, but that makes it easier to get a new PB next year!
