Captor’s Comments:

The rivers were all flooded so I headed down to a big 100 acre + pit in the Lee Valley for a bit of Pike fishing with a couple of friends. We covered plenty of water moving regularly. My friend had one and then my float started to wobble about... I hit into it and lot of resistance was being put on my Nash NRXD - it's 3.5lb Test Curve and it was bend double within seconds.

A short battle later she was mine! All 29lb of her!
