There was a brief report on this fish in this weeks 'Brechiner'.
Sorry but I only got the gist of the story due to 'a house full of kids'. I did catch the fact that it was from the Westie and reportedly was the largest fish from the water in ten years. The beat was given but it didn't register as I'm not overly familiar with the river.
However, there was a picture of the elderly gentleman holding his prize by the wrist so
I'm assuming it was knocked on the head
Didn't get a glimpse of method or weight but will get my roving reporter to phone the details tomorrow.
