Štuka iz arhive +++ A pike from the archive

A pike from the archive
That fishing trip on the Lonjsko polje canals is always a fond memory Through a fishing forum I met a guy named judo4life, who took us fishing his home waters. He was a bit surprised when we started fishing with big lures, but was even more surprised when Ante took this 89cm baby. He didn't know pike of that size were swimming in his „backyard“. The pike was released as were all we caught that day, and there were plenty. Some of them had scars from bigger pike trying to eat them. It was a great fishing day and I made some really nice photos, like the one below that ended up on the front page of the Športski Ribolov fishing magazine. The lure deep down in the throat of this mama is Prologic Rattle Smolt 17cm. Judo4life became a member of our fellowship, but recently has been wielding a photo camera more often than a fishing rod.

Uvijek se rado sjetim tog ribolova na kanalima Lonjskog Polja. Na forumu sam upoznao tipa pod nick-om judo4life, koji nas je odveo na svoj teren gdje je lovio štuke. Malo se čudio kad smo izvadili velike varalice, a još više kad je Ante maznuo štuku od 89 cm. Nije ni znao što sve pliva u njegovom "dvorištu". Štuka je puštena kao i sve ostale koje smo ulovili , a imali smo priličan broj grizeva i ulovljenih štuka. Neke od njih su čak bile u raljama svojih većih kolegica. Sve u svemu bio je to sjajan ribolov, na kojem sam napravio nekoliko meni dragih fotografija, poput one koja je na kraju završila kao naslovnica Športskog ribolova. Mamac duboko u raljama ove mame, je Prologic-ov Rattle Smolt od 17 cm. Judo4life je kasnije postao stalnim članom naše ribičke ekipe, no u zadnje vrijeme se više petlja sa foto aparatom nego sa ribičkim strunama. Uostalom na blogu su već objavljene njegove fotke u jednom od prethodnih postova...

da, bas je izgledao jadno :) no par tjedana kasnije bio je visok vodostaj, a sa visokom vodom u te kanale ulazi i nova riba. no po toj visokoj i mutnoj vodi nismo imali ni griza.
