Amazing white pike caught from Lake Windermere

Angling Times, 11 June 2010 16:00

This remarkable 13lb 6oz ‘ghostie’ pike was caught by Simon Ashton during a day’s guided fishing on Lake Windermere with ‘Piking Pirate’ Gord Burton. Both anglers were excited by the catch because Windermere’s crystal-clear waters make for dark green-coloured fish, while this specimen was almost white with a sky-blue head and gill rakers. “We were both amazed by the colouration ...

It may not be right to fish with livebait, but we have a right to

Steve Partner, 14 May 2010 17:00

It’s not much of a secret that I don’t really like pike.

Angling Times, 01 April 2010 17:30

The captor of the biggest pike of the season wishes he’d never told anyone about his catch, following a tirade of abuse by cynical predator anglers.

Keith Arthur - BAA livebait ban is the thin end of the wedge

Keith Arthur, 26 March 2010 17:00

The decision made by the committee of the BAA to ban livebaiting is one of the most serious matters to arise in angling politics in the last decade, in my opinion. There is no more natural means of catching fish than by using livebaits. Our very sport, coarse fishing, bears its name under the meaning of coarse beingnatural: we fish ...
