he 29th of April is a day that I’ll never forget, let me tell you why.
During a 20 year love affair for pike and predator fishing it has been my goal, or rather an obsession, to catch a fish of 30lb or more! My long standing PB of 29lb 8oz from the Blithfield reservoir, which I caught on a fly, has lasted me for over 16 years. After coming so close to breaking my PB on two previous occasions today, at last, my lifelong dream was about to come true!
