Get one of them hooked up for a big girl. Three sets of trebles on. Front middle and back. Had some big girls using 3 , 4 lb Jacks. Made my own live bait floats from big polyballs from boyes shop in brid. 

It'd be worth a go on a big res or river but not much point on the canal and I'm on a light setup anyway, the 6lb pike was enough of a fight for my rod....

Many rods nowadays can take big fish mate if played right. But 6lb is a nice fish. In the past I've had mid 20s top 20s. Friend of mine on one of the local water sport lakes has had a 30 plus. Some monsters in this lake. I've had some decent fish out of canal local too.

Yes mate common from the lodge lake, looks a bit smaller than 42lb in the pics but the publicity helps them I suppose. Going back for a few days in August, been 3 times previously in the lodges with the wife not everyone's cup of tea but it makes a nice change from a bivvy and Ive always done well with fish up to 29lb.

Just got back from work and my boys stood on the end of my boat within minutes he shouts he’s in so I go out and start snapping but the fish had other ideas and jumped out his arms and back in the water lol managed one snap before it launched off lucky not a biggie
