Captor’s Comments:
Bit of a story to this one! I had packed up after a couple of nights and moved all my gear around to the car ready to leave. Whilst waiting for the old man (who had fished three nights on the pontoon and blanked) i cast out a rod into the middle on a chod with a high vis pop-up. five minutes later the rod screamed off. 'Don't worry its only a bream' - it ended up been a 25lb beautiful leather!
