Kennet beauty

10lbs 10ozs

A day on the Kennet with my good friend Dave, I set up the avon as usual for perch and cast in a lobbie tail to the bush to my left, I had just cast in the barbel rod with meat down the middle when my perch bobber started sliding away, as I struck all hell broke loose!I was connected to a very angry barbel on 5bs line to wide gape 10 and a 1lb and a bit TC avon. With my skill or a very stupid barbel I managed to keep it out of the snag and she was netted safely,looking huge in the net I rested her then unhooked weighed and photographed.
Had this little chap hopping on and off my cane all day!
