WELL IT WAS ALMOST A FORTY!!!! 19/10/13 Tom thought he had a twenty when he was playing it, thought it was a thirty as he got it to the net, knew it was special when he landed it and was over the moon when it weighed in at 39lb 12oz- just 4oz off that elusive forty but stunning nevertheless. Incidentally I am pretty certain that it is a different fish to the reported 38lb of a few weeks ago which had the white fins. Think it’s the fish known as ‘The Big Mirror’-Dave Frear had it a couple of years ago at 35lb so it’s obviously doing well
27/10/13 Gary Edwards had a 26lb common? and Nigel struck lucky with ‘The Fully-Scaled’ at 30lb 6oz. Tom Flack also had a 28lb and a 17lb
