At around 7pm Paul Waghorn was called out to witness and photo a very large Pike caught by Damian Rooney. It was estimated at 20lbs and despite being weighed on three different sets of scales, all had very different readings between 19lb 8oz and 22lb.

Damian Rooney with an estimated 20lb+ Pike landed under the bridge.

One set was certified but even that was reported to be playing up. The fish was relatively short, but unbelievably fat and all convinced it had not spawned.
