This week’s Angling Times has some great articles inside.

Our pick of the bunch has to be Stu Lennox’s feature on short-session piking in the special 8-page Predator section. He passes on some great tips for getting more from your deadbaits. Some extra images from the session are included below.

In the Match section, Drennan Barnsley Blacks’ Simon Fields visits the River Ancholme to show you his finely tuned breadpunch approach.

For big-fish anglers, there are also plenty of impressive chub captures to be envious of – including a Drennan Cup weekly prize winning 8lb 2oz specimen!

Also inside, Dave Harrell, explains why he wouldn’t fish a river without several choice patterns of Drennan hooks. Martin Bowler also continues his Thailand adventure by banking, amongst other fish, a stunning arapaima.

The Angling Times is in the newsagents every Tuesday and also available on iPad and Android.
