Scottish record poss???

what i found after a quick google was the scottish record is 4lb 14oz from loch ard 1989

think the brittish record is 5lb 15oz

might be worth looking into it?

not sure what you have to do about it though

Coarse fishery at Haddo?

Mike,

When did you branch out into coarse fish at Haddo?  I assume from the picture it was caught at your place.  That is one BIG fish!  Must have been fun on the fly rod.
