I went for perch yesterday&#8230; but all I could catch were zander. I then went for zander today&#8230; and ended up with two perch and two pike!<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s still really nice to get out and fling a bit of rubber about, regardless of the species or size of fish. Been doing this style of fishing for several years now whenever I get some free time and I&#8217;m learning so much all the time, too. It&#8217;s such a nice change and contrast to the serious match fishing I do. Plus, buying all these weird and wonderful lures from the &#8216;sweet shop&#8217; is half the fun!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2145\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions2-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions2-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions2-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions2-160x160.jpg 160w, https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions2-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions2.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2144\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions1-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions1-160x160.jpg 160w, https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions1-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.jonarthur.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/lure-fishing-sessions1.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just had a couple of enjoyable late afternoon mini sessions on the Oxford Canal with the trusty lure rods.
