Hinckley’s Ashley Burton with a fine Wye Pike caught after covering miles of river with a float-legered Sardine deadbait!
The handsome fish weighed 16lb 2oz and came to the first cast of the day, after just 5 minutes – a glorious start to the trip. However, Ashley then covered quite some miles during the remainder of the day without any further bites – but that’s fishing!
“Once again my E-Sox Pikeflex 10ft rods were put to very good use” quipped Ash – “I have to admit to being a little bitten by the pike bug again, so I will be doing some more piking this season!”
