Once again it's the weekly follow up to Simon's "Anyone fishing this weekend?" thread... it seems to have come around quickly this week, did anyone get out on Saturday or brave the icey cold wind and snow showers today?
Hats off to everyone who made the effort and braved it to get out and fish, as planned it was a matter of convenience and a local lake for a few hours for me today with just the ultralight 6' 4 - 8lb lure rod and despite the conditions it was a good few hours.
The perch were feeding well with some nice fish, best pictured below but lost what I think was one well over the 3lb mark at the net along with managing to get the net under a nice pike on the light gear, there seemed to be a "golden hour" around 2pm where I was getting hit after hit from perch but just not managing to land 'em for the jig pulling out so a bit of thinking to be done there before the next trip.
All in all not a bad day considering...
So then... where did you all venture out to and how did you get on?
