'The Hunt for a Leviathan'... What exactly is a Leviathan?

In season one of 'Esox Diaries', we defined a Leviathan, in terms of our goal, as a fish of 25lbs plus, and although in the end, we did manage a lovely fish that did exceed this weight, only one constituent of Angling 360 managed to breach this benchmark.

The aim of Esox Diaries, season 2 is to balance the books, and what better place to give us our best possible chance to do so, than the Pike mecca that produced last season's 26lbs leviathan. The mighty Lake of Menteith.

It's a privileged access deadbait day, courtesy of the Pike Anglers Alliance of Scotland. If anywhere is going to produce that BIG fish, it's this place.

En route we have a quick look at some of the essentials of Pike fishing, and aspects that those looking to get in to this ever-growing branch of angling need to consider before hitting the bank.
