Quick Spinning pt trois

On a complete whim I spent six quid on spinners at Go outdoors on Sunday while the wife and kids looked around the other shops next door.
Today - Six pm I pulled up by the river on the way home.  Fifteen minutes later I was on my way again to meet the wife and kids for food shopping, pleased that I'd stopped to land this fish after just half a dozen casts on one of the new spinners, a big copper 9gram jobbie on today's "power session"



Brownie points awarded by wife and a lure caught perch pb of 1lb 2oz in the bag.


perch fin moustache !!

Why haven't I thought of doing this before ???

  3. Nice perch Lee. I can see where the camera was for the first shot, but the second? Balanced on your toe?

  4. I know Dave its poor for me. In my defense I lost my camera adaptor /bankstick thingy the other day, so on now using fence posts , tufts of grass etc... Not ideal.

  5. Great blog. I catch perch by accident from time to time but have never got to grips with catching them on purpose.

    Have you tried Ondex spinners..?

    1. Thanks for the comment, I have tried ondex but yet to catch on them. To be fair I've not tried them much yet.

      I'm finding its very much a confidence thing, but now I'm catching a few I can afford to experiment.

      Recently found your blog btw, brilliant ! Made some drop offs already :)
