🎣 A lure angling session to start the day and 1,112 or should that be 1,113

Peter Carr asked on the guestbook last month if I had plans to do any lure sessions, well this is my third one in the last week or so.

Therefore, it’s true to say that I am now back on track.

As the video begins, you don’t need a lot of time to go lure fishing, and this morning’s session was a short one, which proves the point.

The nature of mini-jigging is such that even a small perch snatching at the lure is felt right the way through to the rod.

That’s why balanced gear is very important regardless of what type of fishing you do.

Another Saturday, another blog tick 

Today is 1,112 weeks that I have posted a blog entry. 

However, when you count the first post, that means 1,113 Saturdays on the bounce. 

I think I’ll stick with the latter, it’s a true statistic anyway.
