Fly angler Gintaras Vosylius caught some cracking bream while fishing with a fly rod last year. So he wondered if his luck could be repeated this year and whether the big bream would show up again. Well, he needn’t have worried, as he hit the jackpot again this week, managing to land an even better stamp of fish.
Fishing a euronymph setup, using a coloured leader above his tippet to detect bites, he found the bream to be aggressively taking his nymph, landing numerous fish in the 6lb+ category and bagging one fish of 8lb+, well over the 7.5lb specimen fish weight. Many seasoned coarse anglers could spend a lifetime drowning maggots without ever catching a fish of that size, so it’s hats off to Ginto for making it look so easy… 🎩
