       got out today for a couple of hours with the lure rod to a wee
       lake up the road from me which usually holds a good few pike but
       all I caught was fishing line and tackle. Cant understand why
       people use such light tackle through weeds, no joking I think it
       was bot 4/6lb line. I went through nearly every lure in my box
       small/big on the bottom, middle and top, plastic and rubber
       bright and dark nothing worked :'(. any 1 else having bother
       with lures this time of year?. I think ill try again at the
       weekend with a couple of baits

       or if you live on the continent a float fished live perch or
       roach should do the trick  ;)
