2024 - August 18th - SODERTALJE CANAL - 6 hours feeder fishing

The canal section was to be a TEAM competition , however due to only a few teams interested it was decided to cancel and they held the match elsewhere which would encourage more teams to compete. 

Because i have not fished for some 4 weeks due to semester holidays at Smedjebacken , Hudiksvall and UK and having got COVID on the Hjalmere canal METMASK SUMMER LEAGUE 7+8 i was itching to do some fishing before travelling to Karlstad for 6 days of competition and pleasure fishing. 




All tackle on display in this report is through METMASK

What a day ! , started really slow with just three roach in first 45 minutes then the Bream attended the event. I caught better with a size 10 hook and two whole worms . The Roach would attack it on the cast but when it went quiet the Bream were zeroing in on the worm bait and i had some really violent bites on the braid so i had to set the drag on the reel quite soft but i still lost 4 fish but caught just about 20 plus Bream and at least 20 Roach .........It was tough lifting up the net  😀😀😀
