River Bladnoch Pike fishing with the Suicide duck

Pike fishing the river Bladnoch in Dumfries and Galloway with a suicide duck lure. Very fun fishing session. caught 4 pike. Biggest was 7lb. Cant believe that someone made a lure that imitates a duckling but it works well.

Thanks was a fun day on the river. Amazing how effective the duck was. I wasnt convinced but the proof is in the puddling I guess

Nice one Iain, cor luv a duck-the pike certainly did!! Maybe try that on the Ayr, and possibly invest in a couple of pike flies, could be good fun too, cheers Peter.

Hi Peter. Yes the Pike certainly liked the duck that day. Good fun. There isnt any pike in the Ayr so probably not catch much on the duck there. Maybe get a salmon. That would be a turn up for the books!! Never tried fly fishing for pike. Might have to give it a go.

@@afishermansdiarywithiainup5377 you never know a salmon might attack a pike fly, I bet they do in Ireland!!. Do you eat pike??any Good?.

[@afishermansdiarywithiainup5377]

Pike is good eating, Just lots of cross bones. Makes good fish cakes and fish curry.
