Semmer Water Lake 2
Went down to a great lake today with Daz, Lake Semmer Water.
Les, Bob and Alec were already there when we arrived, we noticed that anglers were on the "point pegs " then a couple of other anglers then the lads,
We'll get between those two and the lads, huh, some luck, two pike anglers had taken up 3 pegs with six rods, !!
So it was a walk over and thru the beck, I saw the three other anglers, Billy, i was at Ireland with him a few years back, we had a little chat and it was off to the pegs, the lads came from their pegs also..
We sent up the tackle on our chosen pegs, then away we went.
Baits for the day
Red maggot, bronze maggot, caster, worm and sweetcorn
Not a lot happened after that ! not a fish, not a bite.
Anyways some pictures
My peg
My groundbait
My rod tip
Daz on his peg
Les on his peg
Alec
And Bobs feeder cage
High light of the day, Jimmy landed a pike to the weight of 8lb 5oz on his feeder rod, the pike was foul hooked, it attacked a roach with Jimmy had on his hook.
And here is the pike
The day did produce some fish, Alec got the most out, roach, and Daz got a couple out, Les had one but lost it almost to the net.
I gave up after 3 hours of trying, so i went under the brolly, a nap soon followed, LoL
There was a bag of bream out the week before we nt down, 108 POUNDS, the angler was there at the right time. Today, not the day for bream.
A good crack with my cronies, Les did upturn some stones, and under one was a crawfish !!!!!!!! nothing else crawled out tho LMAO
And here's a view of the hills
