PS: Isn't it interesting to see the bottom half of the tail on this wild fish, folk frequently associate tails like this with stocked rainbows. I have caught wild browns that have damaged their tails like this too.

That fish was estimated at 35 years old. I guess living in a fast flowing river and caught around spawning time would contribute to the damage.

If only we had fish like that in the Don

What a fish, must be some feeling when you have a fish on knowing its a potential world record.
