Fishing Techniques

• For White bream

  Use a light line and small hook to avoid spooking the fish; white bream can be quite cautious.

• For Zander

  Use a slow retrieve with occasional pauses to allow the lure to sink and trigger strikes from zander lying on the bottom.

• For European perch

  Vary your retrieve speed and lure depth until you find what the perch are responding to on that day, and use light line.
