Ant Glascoe

Ant reckons this little Chub attacked the 20lb+ Pike he was fishing for with the 4 Play Herring seen in the photo. Personally I think he was seeing things, and the expression "Should Have Gone To Specsavers Mate" comes to mind.
I just love taking the pee out of Ant........ but seriously this chub competed with a brute of a pike and won 1st prize in getting it's photo taken with Ant.
Good sources from within the freshwater world inform me that the jealous Pike is looking to take the chub out for lunch! Watch out for the latest on this story from our intrepid reporter and Press Officer; Chris Bishop!

Ant Glascoe & Christian



Kind hearted Uncle Ant took his nephew Christian out with him recently, and the pair were rewarded with this lovely double which fell to a wobbled deadbait. Then a new venue on a family pike fishing break, produced 20 odd pike whilst working on some new savagear bits, but the fishing was hard as the river was a little flooded and chocolate, but ploughing through floating debris they had some nice fish including this jalopy, which was taken under the rod tip.

Reg Boyall

Just a couple of days after sending me his first piccy for the Gallery, Reg has been out again catching pike from the same area. The latest session saw him land 8 pike including this beauty of 15.08.
At a spritely age of 71, Reg is currently enjoying a good run of pike after a fairly lean spell; and more importantly is enjoying his fishing as much as ever.

Reg Boyall

Here's the first photo from Reg Boyall to add to this Gallery, and what a 'cracker'!
At 21.02 she was the best of 5 caught yesterday (15th Feb) on smelt and lamprey from a Lincolnshire drain by Reg. Well done mate - I'm seriously jealous.


Elliot Robinson

Team Robinson have certainly had a fantastic season so far on the River Tees, with Elliot setting a new PB on Monday with this lovely fish of 17lb. The pike fell to a mackerel deadbait.
He's doing really well for a 14 year old and he is delighted with his latest catch.(He even gave it a kiss - shame it was the day after Valentines Day!!).
Elliot won the Durham & Teesside Region - Junior Pike Angler of the Year for 2009, and he is continuing into 2010 in fine style.
Sadly to say that his dad blanked. Never mind mate, there's always the next time - when Elliot beats you again!

Ant Glascoe

He's at it again....an early morning session saw Ant catch this beauty just as it turned light, followed just a couple of minutes later by a Twenty for his mate.
I don't know what he steps in, but he should market it!

Richard Ralph

Richard Ralph had a great day out just before Christmas with a couple of mid-doubles of between 16-18lb falling to lures on a remote section of an East Yorkshire canal.
Great looking fish!
