Steven Powell of Lure Guides reports on his weekend’s adventures…
It was not clear if we actually were able to get out on the boat this week but with a udden shift of plans we were on the road once again.
This month’s been super busy – pulling boats apart and rebuilding them – with the latest project being the Motocraft make over. The new deck and flooring have made a considerable difference with the creation of extra space. We’re also waiting on a few bits and pieces to finish off our Alumacraft competitor upgrades. That will be good to go soon too. All being well in the next month or so looking forward to that.
Anyway, we headed off on the Motocraft at the weekend. The perch were feeding up and easy enough to catch while the pike were playing cat and mouse. The were chasing the lures, not taking, but kept it us interested as we saw them every now and again. Watching them chase the lure, then slowly disappear into the dark water was just as good as catching them and wondering what size they were. Best part of today was Andy and l getting double hookups – and all of us getting triple hook ups on the perch it was absolutely adrenaline pumping stuff.
Our rods were put to the test again. This time we were light lure fishing with the Legitdesign Standout series rods and as usual were impressed with their performances. Switching over to the Wildside bigbait specials and taming some sport we had some great fishing.
A note on the methods and rigs. Dropshotting, jighead fishing and all sorts of other methods put fish on the boat. Rigging up our pigshads on the Pikecraft harness made our fishing trip effortlessly easy.
