Default 16lb4ozs Brownie caught on Blagdon

Was in Veals today and the guys were saying that the above fish was caught by a pike angler on a deadbait, and then returned earlier this week. Have no further info at the moment, if anyone has a pic or further details can they please post them.

I thought it was only Chew that you could pike fish?

I might be wrong but what a fish

OKay, thanks guys, not into this pike fishing stuff now - or at least haven't been for the last 35 years and I only overheard scant details. But as you so rightly say what a fish.

I was in the Lodge on Friday and was told that there had been 'a couple of double figure brownies' caught by pike anglers.

The weekly fishing report due out tomorrow should make interesting reading.
