Hello

I fish mainly on canals and rivers here in England with lures. Most of my setups (all but one) have spinning reels and I have become more and more interested in reel maintenance and making the reels I have (and will have  ;) ) better than they are from the box. We shall see ...

Anyway, thank you for allowing me aboard  :)

I fish for the main four predatory course fish over here: Perch (similar to or the same as Yellow Perch), Pike, Zander (Walleye) & Chub. I mainly fish for Perch and just catch & release.

There are many other course species that can be caught on lures, though, such as Bream, Roach, Rudd and even Carp. Trout will obviously also have a go, as will Salmon (a mate of mine caught one on a tailbait) and grayling.

Plenty to go after, really  :)

Thanks for joining.

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Hi.
Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.
