Re: mythe farm

I was on the right bank at Pershore a couple of weeks ago fishing a stick float, 4 times a pike took my captured roach or skimmer right close to the bank, and the same thing happened at Fladbury below the bridge,

Re: mythe farm

with the amount of pike that seem to be around, it must be great being a pike angler.

I've had FIVE this season whilst barbel fishing, four on meat and one on pellet. The biggest being 12lb 6oz this week. Fladbury has always had plenty of them

Re: mythe farm

Sounds like the best method of pike fishing these days is to take some maggots/hemp and feed the swim and even hook a few so the pike detect the fish are in distress , then spin a silver dead bait near the swim to mimic a hooked fish, of course you would need to take a dead bait as you are not aloud to use live bait from BAA waters. I myself have always caught more pike whilst course fishing rather then spinning on the River Severn , they do take maggot occasionally. Holt Fleet I have had many hook link cut with luncheon meat as bait , I believe it may possibly be Zander or Pike?

I'm not really a predator fisherman but I think ledger dead bait is much more lightly to produce a large Pike. If I was going to lure fish I would travel light and be willing to cover several stretches in one day to improve my chances, think around Mythe would be good as you could get into a Zander. The ultimate surprise would be an unexpected Salmon.

Re: mythe farm

Holt fleet that would be Zander I literally ran out of hook lengths a couple of years ago. Fishing meat the rod goes over and nothing. I had about 12 takes that day everyone resulting in a sheared hook lengths and not one single hook up. Needles to say nothing was caught that day.
