2023 - April 2nd - awesome news from TROSA - They now have 8 Bailiffs policing the water !!!! This is Brilliant News !!!

I must say what fantastic news i learned today whilst fishing in Trosa - They are coming down hard on people who do not take a fishing card and also keeping an eye on excessive extraction of fish by anglers and that in some cases its actually working as i witnessed today 👍😄🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣


Awesome specimen angler Stefan Johansson , a true friend to the fish species as he appreciates what he catches , photographs it and releases it , a true environmentalist.

(I have no objection in taking a few fish to eat ) 


 


Setting out from Sodertalje 











Arrived in the centre on opposite side to the Bohmans hotel and watched the anglers to see if they were taking any fish .




This anglers took two fish , one he kept the other he put back , very sensible. 










After the family of three left to me left i decided to set up 

I had a pole rig at 11m and fed 6 balls of GG and dead maggots . Decided to leave that for an hour then proceeded to fish a feeder half way across the river section .

First cast and my feeder tip would not stop moving yet no takers ? There would appear to be thousands of Bream out there but not taking my dead reds ? So i went on 12mm punch bread and filled the feeder with a combination of Brown/white ground bait ........after 10 mins .....i am in ! ..........first ide of the day and it was a decent fight with about 2 kilo. Another 30 minutes then a second fish and in-between i hooked a couple of Bream but they shook the hook (foul-hooked) .




Then the most momentous situation arrived when i heard via Stefan that Bailiffs were perambulating the water side and also fishing themselves but importantly they were asking for anglers fishing card proof !!! This is great and exciting news as finally TROSA can see the value of policing the waters for the benefit of the majority and not for the cheating minority !!

These are just two fine fellows of apparently 8 bailiffs who have been tasked to police these waters !!

Also very important is that anglers adhere to the limits of what they can 'take' . On this morning i did see a few anglers exceed the limit however the presence of these bailiffs slowed down their takes and this was noticed by Stefan and myself as the anglers taking were putting every fish back known that i know they had two plastic bags of fish in their vans , maybe 10-12 fish ? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

The presence of authority quite rightly has them scared and with more signage about CATCH and RELEASE and LIMITS this will certainly make this fishing club more viable for more proper , decent specimen anglers to come and fish these fish-rich waters 


HERO's and LEGEND'S 



My place for the day 



Now for photo opportunity time 


Up the two Ide come 




I was bloody cold so forgive me trying to give a smile 




2 and 1.5 kilo size fish ...........both on 12mm punch
