Last weekend at Ontario before spawn period




Today we went on short fishing at Ontario, to take advantage of last pike fishing weekend before spawn period. Later at the afternoon pike were more active than in the morning. I'm pretty sure that I had my bites because I was using really light jig head on my silicone lure, and I was spooling it slowly. This was a trigger for lazy fat pike :) We all (4 of us) had some pike, so we can close this early pre-spawn pike fishing period with smile on the face. From 1st of February till the end of March pike fishing is forbidden in Croatia. Pike are spawning in this period, and we want to see a lot of juvenile pike in our rivers and lakes later this summer. Happy spawning pike :)

NEW RECORD - Huchen 116,5 cm from Kupa river







HUCHEN 116,5 cm CAUGHT ON KUPA RIVER (C&R)!


This is a new record fish from Kupa river. The biggest huchen caught and released on this beautiful river. Vinko you are lucky man and I want to congratulate you for this record and for releasing it back to the river. River Kupa is every year better and we are so lucky to have it here together with our friends from Slovenia. Thanks Gregor for this news and for the photo. I'm pretty sure that in next few years huchen over 100 cm will be common catch on Kupa river.

Two freaks in the night

Sometimes I wonder is it quite normal for a person to walk muddy, slippery sometimes frozen banks of river during cold fall/winter nights. There is not a soul around, and all you can encounter is a fox, rat or hear a creepy squeak of heron. Luckily, zander also move tight to banks every evening stalking little bait fish hidden in rocks and brushes. Is there a better imitation for these tiny fish than Cannibal shad in 8 cm size rigged on a light jig head. My friend makes these awesome weed guards that allow me pitches into bushes and retrieves over rocks. Water was rising and I pitched my Cannibal deep into half submerged shore brushes. I pulled the lure loose of last branch and let it flutter down to bottom right on the outer edge of the bushes...well it never got down there because this zander got it half way to bottom. It was right were it was meant to be... freak just like me...
