Piking, River Tees

Went down today with two mates, Dazb and Bernie
Not a lot to say, cold, frosty ground, windy and no takes,
We used sardines, roach and smelts for deadbaits, ledgered around the middle of the river, the other rod was just off the margins.
One lad a few pegs up from us was the only angler to have a fish, a small jack. And two missed takes

Two other anglers never had a run, they packed up and went home.
Two lads with jerk bait rods came on the river, they were using shad lures, we never saw them catch anything while we were there.

Picture time, Bernie grabbing some sunshine



Dazb under his brolly



Last of all, the frosty path
