CASTING his lure tight to a far-bank reedbed was the winning approach for Stephen Ayres’ dream 36lb 5oz pike.
The fine specimen set a personal best for the Norfolk predator enthusiast, who struck into ‘the fish of a lifetime’ during a roving session at a local lake.
He added:
“Just a few winds after casting out to the reedbed the lure was smashed into, but it was only when it surfaced that I realised just how special this pike was.”
