The Evening Before....

Okay, here we go. I am sitting here like an expectant child on Christmas Eve, why, the answer is simple......I'm going fishing in the morning!!!
I've been a good boy at home and have earned myself some serious brownie points so now its time to cash the buggers in and go fish.
I'm off to one of my favourite venues, the River Yare. I've done really well on this lovely stretch and I'm hoping that tomorrow will be a good day. I intend to take a mobile approach, fish with two rods using a trusty joey mackeral and pin it down hard on the bottom. The Yare Pike seem to like this type of presentation so why change?
I will be giving each likely swim around 30-45 mins and then leap frog up towards my banker swim.
Tackle;
Both rods are identical, Greys Prodigy 3lb deadbait rods. These are absolutely ideal for this type of river and have worked really well for me so far.
Reels are the original Shimano XT10000's. They are more than adequate for the job and I just love anything made by Shimano.
Line is again Shimano, I like the 15lb Technum as the colour (grey) suits most type of water conditions and I have found this line to be exceptionally strong.
Traces are all home made, twizzled as opposed to crimped. I can't get on with crimps, just don't trust them.
Hooks are Fox semi barbed size 4, big and strong these babies, haven't let me down yet!
Indication will be by way of float set over depth, if the pull of the current is too much then I whip the floats off and set up the Fox ledger stems and go on to buzzers.
Nothing techy about that I hear you say, well thats the idea. I can't get too involved with Carpy techy rigs as I don't believe it to be necessary. Ask any seasoned Pike angler and they will prescribe to the simple approach.
I guess I am a lucky chap, I doubt if I will see another Pike angler roaming around like something which has escaped from an SAS boot camp. I'm not saying that I will be completely cammed up to hide myself from my intended quarry, I just like camou clothing!!
Thats my entry for now, will hopefully report on the days catch tomorrow..............................
