Sunday morning rolled around and I had planned to go fishing so up I got had my breakfast loaded the car and I was off. This time around Aoibheann couldn't come along as she has been poorly all week. Also with the cold weather we weren't sure it would have been a good idea anyway.
As you can see from the picture above I had a stunning day of a bit of fishing.
The picture to the right shows my very simple rig that I used. As you can see I have used a lead eject system as fish safety is paramount.
This was fished with a PVA bag and a pop up boilie with a plastic sweetcorn.
Firstly I put some sweetcorn in a bait container and added some brown crumb to dry out the moisture of the sweetcorn so it wouldn't melt the PVA bag. To this I added some micro pellets. I also crushed up some home made boilies.
So I added the "mix" to the bottom of the PVA bag then put the weight into the bag on top.
I then top up the bag with mix and then its up to your own preference. I put the hook and hook bait inside the bag. Some people prefer to leave the hook bait and hook on the outside of the bag. As I say up to you.
The Glug pot to the right shows the bait soaking in Pineapple flavour. To match this I used the Pineapple Goo.
Unfortunately most of the lake was frozen and I only saw some fish in another area 30 minutes before I had to leave so I stuck to the spot I was in. If I had longer I would have moved and hopefully caught.
On the bright side I got some really good photos of the swim and scenery.
