My first Zander

My first Zander

Was fishing yesterday in the deep basin behind my boat.

It’s quite a wide expanse of water, with a couple of piers for boats, then leading down to the lock.

After throwing a bit of groundbait out, I sat down, turned on the radio and cracked open my beer.

After a couple of minutes, the old float started bobbing around.

Fishing on bread.

Pulled this out.

It’s a perch-pike or Zander.

Baby zander

Tiny little chunk.

It’s like a Goby.

Tiny….

You can see it here on my coaster.

Put him back and he swam off.

Maybe one day he will grow up big and strong.
