2lb Rudd With Puddle Chucker Floats

goldston-ruddGareth Goldson has sent us this great photo of two of his best rudd from a recent session in the Fens.

The fish were caught using bread presented with 4lb Supplex line, a 3g loaded Puddle Chucker waggler and a size 12 Super Specialist hook.

“These were two of seven rudd weighing over 2lb, with the best two weighing 2lb 12oz and 2lb 10oz,” Gareth explains. “All the fish came from a little fished Fenland river and made wading through the head-high stinging nettles and brambles all worth while! All the fish fell to floating bread crust tactics using a Hardy Supero float rod to punch the Puddle Chucker to the lillies on the far margin.”
