[DanDanUK]

went down onto Calverly Bridge fishing again !!! woot love that place anyway caught a nice big perch weighed it in at 2lb 9oz

i caught this fish on a live bait skimmer bream for size ratio i took a shot of the fish against my hand and my tackle box

and here's my very poor attempt of a taking a shot of myself holding the monster perch :lol:

oh also had a pike too after my convosation with stotty but i failed to land it, it swam towards me slackend my line then shook it's head spat out my trebles and kept my live bait the cheeky little bugger!!!

size 16 or 18 hook into the shell of the caster works for me but the best live bait i have used for Perch is gudgeon.


Nice one Dan

Picture pointer...hold the fish as close to the camera as possible with you in the background, it makes the fish look bigger (just like the pro's do) .

As far as the perch goes, WOW...I miss them (we don't have them here).

Thanks for sharing.
