River Derwent Pike Taken on a Lure

Here’s local angler, Jonah, with a quality pike he caught from the River Derwent during a lure session on Christmas Eve.

Jonah was fishing a stretch of the river close to Belper town centre when he took the fantastic fish. Here’s what he had to say:

“It was the third fish I caught that day. Overall I caught 2 brown trout and the massive pike to finish off. It was caught on an Abu Garcia Swimbait”

Congratulations Jonah! What a fish!
