I am new to lure fishing being a bait angler for 30 odd years , and have seen some strange things in my time but a barbel on a soft plastic lure is as weird as it gets .
So my new sport is lure angling and after some joy on a local lake i thought that it was time to show my farther how good it is we fished the river Wye for pike i had 1 around 15lb and then a pb of 23lb(the one in my avatar)
whilst dad had nothing.
He had given up hope when his rod sprang round and braid shot from the reel this fish stripped 30 yards of line on its first run. the way it went i thought it must be a huge pike.
when i netted it i dont know who was most shocked me or the fish.
oh yes and to top it off he also had this 30lb+ beast and i had one of 19lb
