2023 - May 28th - Hjalmare Kanal - A viewing with some fishing

Made the visit to Hjalmare Kanal to view this excellent area for fishing but importantly to view the fishing places for any possible maintenance , which there was but very little and i could easily fix with the tools i had .

I paid for a Day Ticket (75 SEK) so knowing i was legal i could enjoy myself.

I spoken with the guy in control of match notifications ('Janne') and he informs me the match is FREE. That is great news and we will honour that decision by behaving well on the bank and causing no litter (i know we are the best bunch of guys 😀😀😀😀😀.

 

Further a long the section i find a jack pike that has been left on the bank as well as battered a little - is there no decency with anglers ( they are not anglers ) 

I completed some maintenance on the pegs - Peg 1

For day tickets but for us the match cost is FREE 😁😁😁😁😁

I decided to set up on peg 7 

Nice bagging session from 11-16 . 6.6 kilos 3 Tench and 10.2 kilos of Mostly Rudd , few Bjorkna , skimmer , roach .

Earlier is visited the Sluss and Cafe 

First time i have visited the Marina and Cafe and i am truly impressed . What a great place to have a draw for the match with Breakfast and a drink after the match ????? 👌👍😏

Discovered New section!?

I had deliberately travelled past our match venue to hunt for any new sections and i came across this piece of the canal ............ 

This section could easily accommodate 10 maybe 13 anglers and combined with the other section gives scope for a larger competition . Is there anymore like this ? Actually i did find others but they are a little too high up of the water .
