On the river for a midnight start to get the new season underway, I also took my mini-jigging tackle with me as well.
The following morning, after packing away from the opening session, I walked the bank to spend some time casting around for a predator.
A couple of fishing sessions but just the one journey – Killing two birds with one stone indeed. It’s about thinking and planning in order to maximise your time.
The tackle I fished with was as follows: Fox Rage Ultron drop shot rod, Fox Rage Ultron 2500 reel, 10lb Sunline braid on reel.
Fox Rage Illusion fluorocarbon 10lb 3oz (2 metres) joined to the braid with a small swivel.
Fox Rage micro jig head 1g size 4 hook. Berkley powerbait 2 inch rubber minnow. All knots (3) blood knots.
