Eric & Elliot Robinson



Team Robinson have been hitting those poor pike on the River Tees again. In their own words"

"Here's our story of todays session.
Elliot and I went to our usual peg on the Tees today for a spot of piking. Elliot was first to strike with a lovely 11lb pike which fell to a mackerel deadbait. Whilst dealing with this pike, Erics bite alarm went ballistic and he had one on too. Eric then landed a 9lb specimen which fell to a brown trout deadbait. After some pics, Elliot placed his fish in the water in the net for a short while, so both pike and captors could be photographed together. Whilst dealing with both fish, Erics other alarm went off, but the pike that was on shook its head and swam off. All in all a hectic 10 minutes out of a 4 hour session which saw very little other action, although Eric had two other runs which didn't amount to fish.
Still, another two pike for Team Robinson and all on video too".
Cheers
Eric & Elliot
