  1. Short report. We went fishing with Saija. Had plan be 1 hour, went 3 h. 😆 So had not even gront motor with me (mistake) so we use anchor. We did try find "redfin tweed", but have been so cold, that havent been grow even yet. Water was only +16'c and now is mid summer. I catch first 4 cast 4 redfin. We try to move closer to spot, becouse Saija had only traditional gears, ror, line, hook and worm. But we lose all spot when move. I catch one more redfin and one common bream. We drive bu boat on ring after ring and try find tweed, impossiple. So we drop anchor and i start casting. One bite, then big bite and fish on. No redfin, but 1.1 kg "some" bream. Nice size and strong fish. I plan that let it go, but eye was broken, so i tuc it for food. Then we tuck anchor on boat and i start row, Saija fishing. Finally we find one fish for Saija, redfin. Then we did drive other spot, where i catch one more redfinn, then back to home.
  2. Just arrival from river. Had plan go fishing for couple of hours. First went alone and try fishing spots where usually catch "table size" zanders. Not even bite there. Then i had plan go to "big fish spot", but Saija call that she come allso boating. So i sayd that it is better, that she come before i go "big fish spot", becouse netting is difficult there if some bigger hooked, becouse there is allso strong stream. So i did drive to redfinn spot, and wait there tjat saija walk to pier. There i catch one pike, but send it back. Then Saija call tjat she is on pier, and i did go get her on boat. So, we drive to bigfish spot, and put i pilot about 15m from spot. Couple of cast with pink softplastic and couple of bite too. Then front motor off, and floating to 5m from spot. Change lure to plack softplastic with yellow tail. First 2 short cast, nothing. Then longer cast and FISH ON. I feel thet it is big, maby big pike. Fight start and we change me to boat front, Saija to boat back, i sayd to Saija, that use motor trim and put motor up, i dont want that line broke to motor. Just under 10minutes and i saw fish tail, WIDE tail, ZANDER tail!! Now i was exciting and hope that get it. Saija tuc net and put in to water allready. Couple more pull by fish, then its came in net, Saija pull net side on boat. Huh, BIG zander. We did drive with front motor more distance from stream and put i pilot on. There we pull zander on boat. My PB zander, 94cm/8.45kg. You can see extreme big "finnish smile" on my face. Offcourse need lucky allso, i trust my fishraider hat and my aussie singlet.
  3. Quick report. We think with Vili, that we go test, if Front motor work again, after change rometecontrol battery. So drive to nearest zander spot. I catch one redfinn. Then change look if tweed is grow allready. It havent, but Vili catch his pb redfinn, 37cm/570g. And very first fish with new rod/reel combo. Next to "big fish spot". Was hard get right spot for i pilot, for stream and wind. After several try i was happy. 3th cast and fish on, short fight and Vili use net. Zander 73cm/3.85kg. I start fixed that, snd Vili continue casting, but not even bite. He need more patience for zander fishing, but he casting well. He want change new softplastic, so i tuc him quite big softplastic, and only drop it boat side. Fish on, quite big, but escape. Next cast to me, and fish on, Vili use net and 66cm/2.65kg zander on boat. Vili want still try, and hi casting one more hour, but nothing. So good start for this season.
  4. After rain, 2 cast and line broke bottom. Change spare gears, and couple of cast, bite near pier but not hooked. New shot cast and fish on, pike this time, but i sayd "welcome" and use net. Pike stomach was allready full roachs, so over eating is dangerous. I did clean fishes, and just came home for smoking 2 zanders. Boys leave to Saija's parents cabin and i give smoked fishes to there.
  5. Just came to pier. Change rod/reel and fixed things in car. 1th cast, stay and line broke. Fixed new leader, 1th cast, zander +50cm. 2th cast, zander 45cm. Then 20min, no even bite. Just now raining snd i have thin trousers, wait in car and and warming fingers. This is Big river, and river start under bridge. Now is lot water, and this spot have 5-8m water, quite strong stream, but wind made waves to stream. I use 14g head, 3/0 hook.
  6. My biggest fear is not, that i lose my boat (or my other kidney). I can be without them, but i was in shock, because first i didnt find that orginal fishraider hat after winter 😱. I have 2 spare hat, but not similar. Luckily I found the original, even though I had to empty the half room first 🤣
  7. Zander season is open. I had plan go by boat, but gas tank coupling was broken. So i drive to pier, with redfinn gears, but zander softplastics. Couple of cast on heavy wind, and fish on, huge, about 10kg Pike. Short fight and line broken by teeth...baga. About 30min fishing, lost 8 zander, redfinn rod was too soft for strike hook trough the upper jaw, it is so hard. I change shorter leader and harder hook. First cast and fish on, short fight and season first zander landing 57cm. Then i need go one meeting, but return pier later with Veikka. With zander gears this time and ofcource, zander reel was broken. But i had my cheap spare pike gears, 3 cast and zander again 57cm was landing on pier, Veikka use net. 15min later i catc 2 more, just legal size, but i releace them. Soon hooked and landet 49cm zander. Then wind end fast and not even bite after that. Anyway nice start.
