Alex Smart _ Perch Fishing P.B

DOUBLE P.B DAY for me…what a brilliant day that was on the perch me and dad set off in search of a perch back on a lake me and Luke Ripley done well last time and got my P.B then of 2lb3oz. Walking round the lake we meet with Luke and had a catch up and fished in the swims next to him. The morning was nonstop rod action. First fish was a carp on a whole prawn at 14lb5oz (which was fun on 6lb hook line and 8lb main line). I then swiftly moved from that swim as don’t want them. The 2nd fish was a nice perch look like another p.b and it was 2lb 4oz then had 2 more. A 1lb 5oz and one what was about a lb. It went quite was hours after that then about 4.30pm the rod screams of again and this one seems a good one. YEP another P.B 2lb 11oz was buzzing after that all caught on prawn and small deadbait roach from Bait Bucket Tackle Warehouse thanks again for sorting the bait out guys

Due to my local rivers being unfishable still I decided a trip to a farm lake that I know was going to be my plan of attack. A dead bait smelt on the float very soon produced my first fish of the day at 15lb 12oz followed very shortly with another at 9lb 8oz. Not a bad session
