Fishing Techniques

• For Atlantic mackerel

  When mackerel are feeding deep, try using a weighted lure or rig to get your bait down to them quickly. Also, chumming with fish scraps can attract schools.

• For Tench

  Pre-baiting your swim with particles like hemp or corn can significantly improve your chances of attracting tench and holding them in your fishing area.

• For Northern pike

  Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.
