Great 3 days of fishing with Frans! The weather served us good as we started with street fishing in Utrecht where Frans introduced me to freshwater fishing starting with drop shot rig with a worm, on which I caught baitfish for tomorrow and my first roach.
Day 2 we headed down the beautiful stretch of small river in Bunnik in Kayaks.
I was soon rewarded with trophy pike as it took on dead baitfish, after a good fight it gave up and came nicely into a net. I was super thrilled to get such a nice pike to be my first ever Pike, just amazing!
We continued down the river after a photo session, and had couple more strikes which I failed to hook in properly and losing the fish right next to kayak. As we came to the small bridge that leads to local bakery, we stopped for a tasty snack and toilet.
After trying to get some Perch from a bridge we decided its time to head further.
Frans managed to land one nice pike after several passing under the highway bridge, we were hoping there would be some Zanders but they didnโt answer the call that day.
On the way back we picked up the pace and trolled with artificial wobblers and I was rewarded with pike, was nice catch to end the day.
Day 3 we were rewarded with beautiful and calm weather, unfortunately predatory fishes were not interested in eating, since their breeding season is starting. Frans managed to land one nice Bream on worm and had couple of strikes on shads. We enjoyed the very warm March day with almost no wind going up and down the river.
All in all great experience! Frans was great teacher and always very helpful.
Hopefully we do it again in the summer season ;D
