2025 - Trosa - September 7th

Last time this year for me at Trosa as the fishing is not the best due to hardly any rain needed to freshen the river and get some oxygen infused into the water . 

Also the Trosa card finishes on the 14th September so your 'YEAR-CARD' is really a 8.5 month card and the rules of this since 2019 is that it must close for the sake of the Trout ! Incredible as it may seem it is the major concern , The Trout !?

I shall be negative as i have the right to be plus many other anglers will have the right to be as the period from mid September till December is also a brilliant time for Pike , Perch , Zander as well as vast shoals of Roach , Rudd , Ide , Bjorkna and Bream are available for some huge weights. So for the sake of the Trout the members LOSE THESE GOLDEN MONTHS. I am sure many specimen PIKE, PERCH and ZANDER anglers would have loved to fish it as they chase vast shoals of white fish into the town.

The club has the authority to set its own rules as clearly for the last 25 years many have enjoyed the mid September to December period which is now taken away because of this self imposed rule?  It was three years ago there was a match on the rear side of the canal walk ( i won it). Why can that not happen now?

It is a shame the club finds itself in this situation as there are fewer places to fish through out a 8.5 month season. From January 1st when no boats in the water the whole area is available , if there are some fish there ? Better fishing happens the end of March and into early May before the boat activity increases . Summer time , June , July , August its almost impossible to fish with boat and people traffic . So really the years card is 12 months minus 6.5 months. 

I have the greatest respect to the bailiffs ( Like Pasi ) who do a great job keeping the standard of angling and anglers to a high level by putting off poaching anglers who wish to abuse the fish stocks and setting good sensible fish caught with minimum takes . Mostly its Catch and Release !

Hans and Pasi ....huge respect to these guys 

 

Picturesque 

 

I got quite excited as i noticed quite a few feeding bubbles activating , ummmm Bream ? Actually a Tench turned over on the surface just above my feed .......i tried for them but no luck.

After 2 hours .......a real struggle 

My fishing today was awful as i could only gather 18 fish !! 5 Perch , 3 roach and 2 Bjorkna the rest being Bleak .........all on the Corn !!

Final score for 5 hours fishing
