Nice one Phil, its just a shame that you started fishing again "due to divorce" How many times must we hear that story. Bloody women, they just hate it when we have an interest that we enjoy and that doesn't involve them. Whats the matter with them, life doesn't revolve around shopping, gardening, meeting their friends and their partners who are tossers and visiting relatives that you hate but have to pretend that you dont!

I love hearing stories like this. Rivers that were killed during the industrial revolution producing magnificent wild fish once again.

Nice fish, more than likely to be a first generation (early 1990s) pump priming stock fish.
Just a pity my local river isn?t doing fish of a similar size as it was stocked at about the same time.
