Pickings were slim for Dale Crowson, fishing peg 1 on Old Pepper. He only saw one fish during his whole session. But one fish is better than no fish. So how to tease it out? Initial attempts using dog biscuit proved unsuccessful.
The following day it was back but this time much higher in the water. And this time Dale was successful:
Dale weighed her at 53lbs and had the weight verified at a second weighing. This lovely Mirror has been seen regularly in the past at over 40lbs but has clearly had a growth spurt, to reach her current weight.
As Dale said, “this is what dreams are made of.”
This makes Dale the latest member of Cottington’s “50” Club.
Congratulations Dale.
