(No) Pike

Date: 29 December 2016
Country: The Netherlands
River: Bernisse
Nearest city/town: Simonshaven
Fish: Pike, Pike-Perch
Technique: Spinrod
Gear: spinners, spoons, plugs, softbaits

We decided to go pike fishing near Rotterdam. The Bernisse is a very nice river that starts from the Spui. The Spui connects the Haringvliet with the Oude Maas. It is not too wide and not too deep.There is a lot of high gras and beautiful pools. We parked our car at the start of the Bernisse (at the Spui) and walked all the way around (we took the first bridge). It was a 10 km hike (15.000 steps) on a cold and foggy day. Along the way we casted as much as possible, changing lures now and again, but helas... not one bite. Nevertheless, it was a nice day out and we will be back here for sure!
