THE GALLERY - DECEMBER 2004

     

 

 

 


December is often a slow month as of course many people are thinking about the festivities ahead.  However we turn our attention to some hard core fishing and Pete Tyjas and I have been enjoying a lot of success fly fishing for Pike.  A report follows.  For those of you more interested in organising Christmas presents I would like to bring to your attention our popular gift vouchers, perfect for the complete novice or improving anglers.  You can find out more here.  We are also very pleased to be able to offer a number of Henry Gilbeys full colour photographs for sale.  These thought provoking shots are inspirational for any angler and make a great present for those who have everything.  We will soon have a page available but for the moment please call 01398 331660 or e mail for details.  Have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year!  See you all for the 2005 season, it's going be great!

Fly Fishing for Pike - Exploring New venues

During the season it really does get busy, so the chance to get away and try new venues doesn't come along that often.  However during winter we get a little more time in between updating the web site or working on magazine articles.  Pete Tyjas now works with Nick Hart Fly Fishing as a full time instructor and holds the Level 2 qualification.  He and I not only work together but also try and get out weekly to fish somewhere and when possible we make it a new venue.  Both of us have the Pike bug and decided that during December we should find some new venues and see if we could get their resident toothy critters interested in our bits of fluff!  We certainly managed just that with several Pike on each trip.  Pete came up with the first venue, a lake which is not only beautiful but also sports very clear water, ideal for Fly Fishing.  The second venue, a canal, was all my own work and we had some truly awesome sport there.  In fact we caught more than the lure and dead bait anglers put together!  If you would like to try out these venues for yourself please call 01398 331660 or email for a guided trip.


Salmon Spawning

My new Black Labrador puppy, Rio, (Spanish for River by the way!) investigates a dead Salmon on a tributary of the Exe.  During a wet but enjoyable walk we counted around 30 Salmon over 2 miles of water without trying very hard.  A good few were dead and a few showed signs of UDN (a fungal disease), however this is still a sign that we had a decent run of fish and spawning should have been good.
