| You see this lake is not the hardest lake in the world, but to land a big fish here can be bloody hard. And there are some exceptional specimens in here weighting well over the 20lb+ mark, with the lake record being a 35.05lb common and I mean Dutch pounds! The later was becoming a fishing obsession, I had to catch one of the lake's thirty's. The problem is trying to get the more larger fish to take a bait, without the smaller, more greedier fish picking the bait up all the time. |
So here is how we did it, and how we made this season one of the best seasons on the lake yet. The winter this year was extreme, with the temperature falling to -15 and a wind chill of around -30. All the lakes, rivers and canals were frozen over, the ice was at least 25 to 30 centimeters thick. So we were able to put most of our fishing time into thinking time. The lake like I said was covered with ice so we had the chance to explore some of the features, able to walk to them and observe them can really help when choosing a swim for the coming season. It was a case of dodging the ice-skaters and telling them to; ....OFF, we're looking for fish! |
