Captor’s Comments:

This was a really feisty fish, as it took me half an hour to get in. This fish i had right down the side of my swim, my indicator went fly off and i had to get to the rod before the fish reached the lilly pads in the corner of the lake. I had my bait runner tighter than usual which slowed the fish right down so i got to it in time. When i struck there was a huge splash from the fish and i managed to get it to swim into the open water. When i got it in eventually it still wouldn't stop fighting.
