Norman Martin returned to Slader Reservoir with his pike fishing tackle after an encounter with a toothy critter during a recent North Devon Tackle Club Match. He was rewarded with this hard fighting mid double.
Slade pike
Toby Bassett fished a wet and windy Slade reservoir to tempt a 10lb 8oz pike. The stunning looking fish was his first of the species. Anglers are reminded that before fishing for pike they need to use a wire trace at all times and carry adequate handling and unhooking equipment.
Fine Brace of Lower Slade Carp
Andres Endean banked these two fine carp from Lower Slade a 23lb 2oz common and a 16lb 2oz mirror.
SLADE RESERVOIR CARP
Ben Pearman fished a 48-hour session at Slade Reservoir and tempted three carp to mid doubles using good old traditional bait sweetcorn.
Slade has produced several twenty pound plus carp this summer and offers discerning anglers a change from the more popular commercial waters.
